First published in 1941, this is the incredible, true life story of a young Russian woman whose ministry ended in tragic death.
“Exchanging silent glances, the murderers turned around and left the gruesome scene in the barn. Her quietness and undisturbed peace, her final prayer for their forgiveness, had astounded their cruel, hardened hearts and closed their lips. Staring at the ground, they left without dropping a word....”
Judith Weinberg, born of wealthy Russian Jewish parents in the early 1900’s, had embraced a faith that cost her everything—family, fiancé, home and friends. And in the end, it cost Judith her life—cruelly snuffed out by the deadly swords of the Russian Bolshevik Revolution.
Judith by N. I. Saloff-Astakhoff is the incredible, true story of her life of sacrifice and service among the Russian people. It was the author’s privilege to have observed much of Judith’s life and Christian witness...and to have witnessed her untimely end.
This book is dedicated to the men and women who discovered joyous new life through Judith Weinberg’s ministry, and others who will reap the rewards indirectly in years to come.
