| | | Greetings to all at PB
Hi to all my name is Keith and as a new member to the PB I thought it would be a good time to introduce myself.
Born and raised in Northern Ireland I have also lived in England (married an English girl), worked in the US, studied in Wales and did short-term mission work in Peru.
I have been a lifelong member of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland and have been working as a Pastoral worker for families and young people for the last 3 years. I'm also studying part-time for my MDiv at Union Theological College in Belfast and would love to do further study at Westminster Theological Seminary, dv. As a member of the PCI I hold to the Westminster Standards, so you can work out some of my theological proclivities. I'm also an Innkeeper with The White Horse Inn and a fan of Christ the Center at the Reformed Forum.
Also, I'm thoroughly enjoying the discussions on the Forum.

Greetings Keith,
That's a good strong name - also was my dad's, and is my middle name, as well as my son's. There's some Irish stock back in the early days of the melting pot. But my roots tap so many nationalities I'm not sure who to identify with. I guess whoever's winning at the time.
Welcome aboard.

Welcome! My husband has red hair, but not sure if he's Irish. (The word is he's Scottish...do they have red hair?) Me, I'm a Mutt with the most of any nationality being Italian, but supposedly there's some Irish in there somewhere!
