Post hello from South Jersey

Hi everyone. My name is Adam and am 27 years old and here's what it looks like when i use a camera to take my picture...

I live in Southern New Jersey. I grew up and was confirmed Roman Catholic in my younger years, but left the church a while back for the obvious theological reasons. I now consider myself a Christian of the Reformed tradition. Nevertheless, I'm also looking into moving to a more orthodox church, possibly the OPC and wanted to join Puritan Board to read and discuss what others here are sharing about the Reformed denominations that one can join, and also share in other discussions of interest in the many subboards with site has to offer. Thanks :I

Welcome, Adam! We've got some room for a Jersey boy!

I was born in Stratford at JFK hospital, 1974....

I live in Salt Lake City now.

When my relatives come to visit me from back east, they ask, "Is there a little Italy in Utah"?

I tell them, "Yeah, You're looking at it"!

Welcome Adam! So what you're saying is that your confirmation in the RCC didn't take. Mine didn't either. Maybe it's time the magisterium check the the batteries in their 'confirmer'. It's just not holding a charge.

Glad you're here friend.

to the Puritanboard. Nice to have you.

I'm from north Jersey but I left a long time ago. I was a member of Osceola Presbyterian PC(USA) - the church that you can see from the GSP southbound as you pass Exit 136.

Thank you for the warm greetings everyone!

BlueTick: cool! I was born over at Underwood Memorial Hospital in Woodbury

a5pointer: I live in Pitman, next to Glassboro where Rowan University is located. I see in your signature you are in Ocean City. That's the beach my father and mother always took us to growing up. We used to do a lot of crabbing under the 34th street bridge.

BobVigneault: lol I like that!
