Meet the Charismatic Christian Who Is One of Time's "Person of the Year" Honorees

Jessilyn Justice : Dec 16, 2014  Charisma News

"The past few months have been filled with some of the most intense moments of my life, but they've also been some of the proudest. I'm honored to be listed next to these truly inspiring people and want to take this time to recognize everyone, on this list or not, who has helped fight Ebola on the front lines." -Katie Meyler

Katie Meyler, a charismatic Christian who graduated from the University of Valley Forge, was named as Time's Person of the Year for her caregiver role in fighting Ebola. She works in Liberia, combating the disease in the slum of West Point. Her life demonstrates putting others first, as she fights on the front lines of this devastating disease.

Her time in Liberia, though, isn't her first brush with immersing herself in poverty.

"There were a lot of drugs and abuse and chaos in my family when I was growing up. ...Then in high school, my youth group did a service project in Haiti. When I got there, I met a little girl who didn't have running water, deep in a village. I realized, oh my God, I'm not poor and I never was. It just really changed me," Meyler told One Thing More of how she came to work in Liberia.

"They say that no one ever chooses Liberia—Liberia chooses you. The reason people say that is that it's just so intense."
