Golden Retriever- Good at making friends. Very loyal. Retriever personalities do not like big changes. They look for security. Can be very sensitive. Very caring. Has deep relationships, but usually only a couple of close friends. Wants to be loved by everyone. Looks for appreciation. Works best in a limited situation with a steady work pattern.

Weakness: Indecisive, indifferent, unable to express emotional, too soft on other people
Limitation: Seeing the need to be more assertive, holding others accountable

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

As a child I would always listen to gospel music. A minister asked me and my mom to attend church and I went alone most times. Once older I was in a dark place and every morning I would listen to Yolanda Adams album and it pushed me to find a actual church home and pushed my desire for Christ. Music is what really connected me to Christ, the shortest version of my testimony.

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

I have served as a dancer at the Temple of Praise( Washington, DC),as well as a helper with the youth and young adult ministry.
I attended the church from 2007- Until early this year(2018).

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

I became a mom in 2004.

I graduated in 2017 with a Master’s Degree

I bought my first home( through many trials and Tribulations) , God made it happen for me.

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

I experienced death in 3’s- starting with my mom, Daughters father, and finally best-friend.
