Dearly Beloved in Christ,

Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Mrs. Helene Heather Thomson Sneddon,I am a nationality of Canada , I grew up in hong kong and I am also presently hospitalized in Hong Kong , due to my illness. Presently, I'm with my laptop in this Hospital, where I have been undergoing treatment of cancer for over one year. My husband was once the Managing Director of Shell Oil Company in Hong Kong , where I and my husband spent most of our lives I am a widow to Late Mr. Mark Thomson Sneddon.

I have served the Lord all through my life, from long time cancer of the breast to a very critical stroke.From all indications, my condition is serious and is quite obvious that I may not live more than six months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very severe state and my doctor has told me this The one that disturbs me most is the stroke that paralyzed half of my body. My late husband was killed during his reign as the Managing Director of Shell Oil Company in Hong Kong , and during the period of our marriage we had a son who was also killed along with his father through food poison in Shell Oil Company convention of 2007 in Hong Kong .

My late husband was very wealthy and after his death, I inherited all His business and wealth. Presently my doctor told me that I may not live for more than six months, though I am not scared about this, I am not afraid of death, hence I will be in the bosom of the Lord forever, any time my God calls me home, I now decided to look for an organization or an individual who is God fearing, that will use the funds for charity organization, by contributing to the development of evangelism in the world, assisting motherless babes homes and poor churches all over the world.

I selected you after browsing the Internet for this purpose and prayed over it, for the fact that I always go to God in prayers in situation like this, because He is the Alfa and Omega.I am willing to donate all the money I have in the bank, which is US$15,000,000.00 (FifteenMillion United States Dollars) to you for the development of evangelism and also as aids for the less privileged around you. Please note that this funds is lying with a Bank,
