I love to work with all people. The more personalities the better the outcome.

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

Whoa! That process and strategies lose the genuineness of the love of Christ. The new church are using strategies with scripture as a foot note. Instead using scripture and a plan of action. But thats just my opinion.

Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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.

Strength: Accommodating, calm, affirming
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

I was born as a PK preachers kid, but it wasnt until I was 15 that I became to know Christ for myself. I went to a yearly youth camp and it was one of our nightly services. The spirit of God was so heavy in the place that I asked God to be my Savior, and that I will call on Him for everything and I will trust that He will give me the answers and I promise you His voice has always been there. Even through the bad.

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

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

Becoming a mother

Preparing Holy Disciples (PHD), the youth conference I attended from the ages 13-21… I am who I am today because of them.

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:

Being ignored because I was a quiet child. I always want people to know I see them and love them. All quietness does not mean they’re okay.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

Putting Your Spouse First
Your Kids Second
Everyone Else After those

3. To sing full time. If it was background or center stage.

4. I would feed the homeless. I try to do that on a much smaller scale but I would love to feed and provide shelter for everybody.
