Celta

Daughter of a Roman Centurion; Female Evangelist

Celta was one of the original ten women commissioned by Jesus for the Women's Evangelistic Corps. As the daughter of a Roman centurion, she represented the Gentile presence within Jesus' movement -- a living proof that the gospel was for all peoples, not just Jews. Her inclusion was doubly revolutionary: she was both a woman and a Gentile in a Jewish religious movement.
