Hi my name is Pauline Whyte. I came on staff at Lakeside in 1993, fulfilling the roles of Office Administrator and Communications Director. I enjoyed being at the hub of the activity for it was here that I interacted the most with the many faces and names that were a weekly part of Lakeside.

In 2000 I started downsizing my administrative duties and concentrated more on the communication needs, for this is truly where my strongest God-given talents are. Prior to joining Lakeside I was both a graphic designer and a teacher of graphic design in the Toronto and KW areas. By 2002 I was concentrating fully on visual communications and started adding video creation and editing to my portfolio. I also oversee the Sunday morning technical team that presents all the visual elements on a weekly basis.

Presenting biblical concepts via multimedia is a big part of what we do at Lakeside, and so it should be. We live in a world full of visual stimulation. We are surrounded 24/7 with the awesome, amazing natural world created by our Heavenly Father. That we see in colour and three dimensionally is no mistake. It is how we were designed to continually take in, be inspired by and spoken to in some of the most breathtaking ways.

That God created me with gifts and abilities that focus on visuals is a real thrill. To be able to turn around and use these gifts at Lakeside in a way that proclaims His wonderful message is an opportunity and honour I know I have been truly blessed with.

I have also been blessed with a great husband, Jim, who puts up with my artistic bent, and two great children, Justin and Katie. We have enjoyed living in Guelph for many years. Once a week I volunteer in the Alzheimer's program at St. Joseph's in an effort to give back to the community that has been so good to us.
