Okay, this is what i would do!!

Next Time she starts preaching about say, "Hey, i respect your love towards god, but stop please", like that. Try a sentle-mentle agreement with her, and if that doesn't work. Sorry, i'm stumped

Tell her that you respect her beliefs but would like it if she kept them to herself in the future. Let her know that you have your own beliefs but don't go about broadcasting it to your peers.

There's a chance she may have grown up around fundamentalists or those fanatical about religion who think they must make everyone follow them. If she continues to make these views known and harass you into following them tell your teacher and principal privately to tell her this isn't the proper time or place to share them.

She probably has that mentality and her church or parents have told her to be in people's face about God and saving others. Once the school teaches her that she must curb it all should be well.

She could also be a bit off it and be obsessed with this one thing to the point nobody could tell her anything. I've had this happen o me in the past with someone who wouldn't stop with their views. So, I left a Christian Science Journal on my desk to show I was Christian but not open to constant or any discussion. That's all it took as it gained her respect.

Wow, I HATE it when people preach. You need to set this chick straight. If she begins preaching to you, tell her kindly but sternly "Look, I know you're just trying to do you're job by spreading the religion, but maybe you should start preaching to people who DON'T believe in God, because I already do". That should shut her up :) If not, a restraining order is always helpful ha ha goodluck! Hope I helped!
