‘I’m Here to Kill You’: How A Woman Dodged an Assassin’s Bullet and Led Him To Christ

“I remember full of blood, full of pain as many of them were hitting me I looked straight up to them and I said I don’t like what you’re doing, but God loves you and I choose to love you, and they had to turn their faces because they were crying,” recounts Virginia.

Virginia Prodan doesn’t hide the fact that she should be dead. In her book, Saving My Assassin, Virginia shares the incredible story of death staring her in the face, and how she fought back with nothing but the word of God.
 
“I am not a hero, God gave me this mission and I was a tool in God’s hands,” Virginia tells CBN News.

“I was told in those interrogations that those laws weren’t in the books to protect Romanian freedom of religion and freedom of speech, they were in the law books of Romania for the western civilization to believe that we have freedom,” recalls Virginia.
 
But Virginia proceeded to use those laws to fight the government, anyway.
 
“Later on I found out that when I was in the courtroom facing the judge and the persecutors, behind me there were representatives from America, from France, Israel, all over the western Europe who would take notes and send it to their government,” says Virginia. “For that reason, I’m alive and not dead because God protected me.”

Outside the courtroom, however, the government took its revenge by beating and torturing her.
 
“I remember full of blood, full of pain as many of them were hitting me I looked straight up to them and I said I don’t like what you’re doing, but God loves you and I choose to love you, and they had to turn their faces because they were crying,” recounts Virginia.
 
And through it all, Virginia was winning her religious liberty cases – then came her biggest test.
 
“It was so risky that when I received this assignment I said Lord, you give them a chance to actually pick up the gun and kill me,” says Virginia. “I received documents that would prove that the dictator was lying, continuing to lie to America.”

“I took the job and later on created a pocket in my suit and I put the documents there with the intention to give it to the American embassy the next day because I had a case and I knew that they would be in the courtroom,” explains Virginia. “They took me and they interrogated me, but that day they forgot to search me.”

“I looked at the man, and I started to share the Gospel. He was just a human being like me looking for the truth like I used to look many years ago,” recalls Virginia. “As I shared the Gospel with him I noticed, I looked at the man who screamed a few seconds ago, melting under God’s power.”
