Tom Galpin - Young Adult/Youth Group Intern Pastor

Tom is married to Ruth who grew up in the Appalachian foothills of Greenville, SC.. As one of six children she learned early the meaning of scarcity, want and love. As a super star child, she was recruited by Covenant College on Lookout Mountain, GA to play soccer and grace the school with her athleticism, beauty and charm. Tom grew up, more or less, in flatlands of Florida’s central coast. As the middle child of five, he learned early the skills necessary to appease and negotiate life in a packed house. As a mediocre child he wasn’t recruited by anyone. So he went to the University of Florida. They met in Chattanooga, TN where the beauty met the geek. Subsequently (because as a mediocre child Tom knows not to pass up a good opportunity when he sees one) they got married and have had three and half years of wedded bliss. Currently, Tom is pursuing an MDiv. at Covenant Theological Seminary.
