Sarah Palin is a conservative Protestant and on Saturday I wrote that she is apparently a member of the Assemblies of the God but that little had been written about her religion.
She did attend the Wasilla Assembly of God church and was baptized there but does not consider herself Pentecostal.
Here is a bit more.
From Time magazine:
Q. What church do you attend?
A. A non-denominational Bible church. I was baptized Catholic as a newborn and then my family started going to non-denominational churches throughout our life.
The Associated Press offered this:
Maria Comella, a spokeswoman for the McCain-Palin campaign, said Palin attends different churches and does not consider herself Pentecostal.
And the Los Angeles Times had this:
Palin was baptized as a Catholic but later began attending the Wasilla Assembly of God church. At age 12 she, her mother and sisters were re-baptized in nearby Beaver Lake. The former pastor of her new church would give the invocation at her inauguration.
