[H]eart

Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. Showing my love to others and hanging out with friends

2. Reading my Bible and other books

3. Working with young children

Who I love to work with most, and the age or type of people:

I love working with young children grades 1-3. These people are just so innocent and fun to be around with, and I love them. They also love being around me.

Church issues, ministries, or possible needs that excite or concern me the most:

When I see the homeless, I always feel bad and pray for them. Once I gave a man a bar I had and he was so sweet. He said “Thank you. God bless you.” I also feel terrible for the abused children because I was one of them.
