God Saved Me in the Orient Express and I Came to America
Elizabeth Benlian Dianovich
Dear reader, I wrote my book "God savedme in the Orient Express and I came to America" having you in mind.I prayed to God to get meout of former Communist Bulgaira, but I knew my chance to get out was very slim - something like one in the thousands.
With the help of God my dream was fulfilled. During 1968 I escapedon board of the Orient Express train under strange curcumstanses. God made me "invisible" onthe train and I passed through the border like a suitcase.This all sounds like a fictional story, butit everything that happened is true. I believe God sent visible and invisible angles, during my escape.My testimony is reassuring, that nothing is impossible with God, who can move mountains.
First He moved me from Sofia, Bulgaria to Beograd, Yugoslavia. Then He moved me on the board of the Orient Express (with general route at that time from Istanbul,Turkey toSofia,Bulgraia to Beograd,Yugoslavia to Trieste,Italy to Paris,France) to Trieste,Italy. I'm grateful to God , who gave me the privilege for this book to be published. I hope my book will encourage and help people. My legacy is still going on, that's what said in my gold medal winning poem "I am still climbing the mountain".
