Beth and Kate interview the wonderful, amazing, one and only Marta Aker! Marta is wife to Greg and mother of two grown kids, Shawn and Leslie. She has three grandchildren. Marta was an art teacher for many years but is now retired and gives so much of her time and love to the Upper Room body and so many others! Apart from  working as an art teacher, Marta spent years homeschooling, hosting small groups and families in her home, using her creative abilities to decorate homes and spaces all over! Since caretaking for her mother, brother and grandkids in the past, she now spends her great days ministering to women, serving at the Way Station, and holding several roles at the Upper Room in missions council and grounds keeping. Marta has been at the Upper Room for over 40 years! We're so grateful for Marta, for her beautiful example of caring, watching, organization, and beauty. If you know Marta, you know she loves Jesus and serves him with a whole mind and whole heart. Her love for and example of Jesus can be seen in the way she loves people so much and the plethora of ways she gives of herself to serve so many!
