Howdy - I'm Wes :)


I'm 24 years old and I live in Tampa, FL (Hurricanes suck).

I'm an intern minister with the Bay Area church of Christ and work with the campus ministry at the University of South Florida.

Just found the forum here - looks cool.
Hi Wes! I'm from Tampa, currently over in Boca Raton for school. I dislike hurricanes as well (sorry that we keep pushing them your way after we get them). Just wondering where your church is I don't think I have ever heard of it... Be safe through all these bad weather. God Bless.

Cool to have another Tampa Person here :)


The Bay Area church of Christ is in Mango a block off of Martin Luther King Blvd. a mile or so down from I-75.

Are you familiar with the Mango area?

Mango is right beside Brandon and Valrico if you know where that is.

I'm not real sure how long the church has been around, but I know its been around a few years at least (I'm from Arkansas and didn't grow up here). I think it consists of two different churches that merged to form one. I want to say those two churches were the Tampa Bay church of Christ and the Mango church of Christ - now known as the Bay Area church of Christ. :)

I could be wrong about that though ...

Greetings to everyone!

My name is Greg S. Whyte (which, the meanings of my name is the username that I have... Greg/Gregory="watchman", and the S.="Highlander" (I'll let you guys figure that one out :p) I am 24, and the pastor of a small church in Waterloo, Ontario, as of June.

Before that, I was in Bible College in Toronto for 3 years, and before that, the rest of my life in BEAUTIFUL British Columbia, in various towns there, with a few years up in the NWT of Canada (at the top, for those who may not know where it is...).

I was raised in an agnostic home, outside of the church, and became a Christian right after I turned 18 (6 years ago, give or take a few months). Don't know how to really describe how I came to become a Christ follower without making a novel of it, so I'll just say that I have my testimony written on my personal website, which I think can be linked to through my user name on the forums... If not, PM me or get me on MSN.

Anything else, please feel free to ask (though PMs might be the best for this, as I have forgotten some of the threads I've posted on already... Yeah. I can be kind of absent minded at times... ;) ). God bless you all!

I think I know where you are talking about. I've never heard of the church but there a lot in that area so I'm not suprised. How long have you been in Florida? Do you like the Tampa area? Different from Arkansas I'm guessing. hehe :p

Hey all, I'm new here.

Since I am a young adult, thought I'd spend some time in the young adult section!

I'm a sophomore Psychology/English double major at a small private college in Nebraska. I want to be either a high school English teacher or a Christian counselor.

Random fact: I secretly want to be a pastor's wife! How weird does that make me? :blush:

Question for you all: What is your silliest secret dream?

God bless!
