I thought I had read somewhere that she was raised Catholic, then baptized AOG after she reached adulthood, then changed over to the Wasilla Bible Church. Was that information incorrect?

More specific - - she went to AOG as a teenager.

Bottom line is that she was raised Roman Catholic then as a teenage began attending an Assembly of God church where she was baptized and whose pastor (now retired) she has credited with her coming to the Lord.

She attended the Pentecostal AOG church until age 38 when she began attending the Wasilla Bible Church that she currently attends.
