Celta, the daughter of a Roman Centurion, became a believer in Jesus and later was appointed as one of the ten original members of the women's corps who preached the gospel and ministered to the sick.
Ten women who served diligently in the kingdom’s first hospital were selected by Jesus, and he commissioned each to preach the gospel. They quickly added two more women, Rebecca, and Mary Magdalene. This corps grew to number sixty-two women, serving with the seventy disciples on Jesus’ preaching tours. They often went from house to house and city to city spreading the good news and ministering to those in need. They were especially wonderful in their ministering to the sick.
These women took part in most of the events in Jesus’ ministry, remaining close to him and faithfully helping whenever they could.
The successful spread of early Christianity can be attributed to the apostles, the women’s corps, and the seventy disciples. They continued showing the love of Jesus throughout foreign lands, many facing a martyr’s death. These are lost biographies, with only Mary Magdalene being mentioned in the bible from the women’s corps membership.
