Pastor Philip Chryst has been the Pastor of Warren’s Grove since 2006. He is a native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, but at the age of 9 his family moved to Charlotte, North Carolina. When Philip graduated from East Mecklenburg High School in 1993 he then moved to Wilmington, North Carolina.

In 2000 Philip began working for S&D Coffee Inc. as a sales representative. After 6 years God called him into full-time ministry. In July of 2005 Philip was invited to be on staff, at Faith Harbor United Methodist Church in Surf City, NC, as the Minister of Discipleship. After serving at Faith Harbor for a year, Bishop Alfred Gwinn assigned him to Warren’s Grove in Roxboro, NC.
