Christa Upton
Homemaker, Writer, Taylor University graduate
I was baptized in a Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod) and came to Christ in Kindergarten at the Baptist school I attended. I have found blessings and rich traditions in other denominations also--non-denominational, Presbyterian Church of America, Methodist, and now Evangelical Free. My parents and Christian school teachers helped me learn God's Word from a young age, and I am so thankful for God's saving grace and love. I met my wonderful husband at Taylor University. We were married in 1992, and our children were born in 1997, 2001, and 2005. Our youngest suffers from spina bifida and related problems, but the love of God shines through her, as well as through our other two children. We are so grateful for what God is doing in them. Around 2009, I became very ill from accidental Toxic Injury (extremely severe). We have been struggling since then, but recently the Lord has provided the means for treatment for me, and we are very excited. It is the beginning of a new chapter in our lives, and we can't wait to see what God will do.

14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
