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

Beaver- Organized. Beavers think that there is a right way to do everything and they want to do it exactly that way. Beaver personalities are very creative. They desire to solve everything. Desire to take their time and do it right. Beavers do not like sudden changes. They need reassurance.

Strength: High standards, order, respect
Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.
Limitation: Seeing the optimistic side of things, expressing flexibility

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I grew up in church all my life. I asked him to be the Lord of my life when I was 9 years old. In my younger teen year I started growing closer to him. it definitely wasn’t easy, I strayed away more than I like to admit but as im adulting I am seeking him out and growing closer and closer to him.

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

Crosspoint, St. Louis MO, served in the 4 year old room. 1 year

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

In 2016 I lost 60 pounds and I Felt healthy and beautiful.

God chose me over my unborn sibling. If my mom didn’t have a miscarriage, I wouldn’t be here

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:

My mom and dad got divorced when I was 6 years old. And I feel I have grown stronger because of it. Its also taught me about relationships in a weird way.

In 10th grade I got suspended for skipping last period and being under the influence of alcohol on school property and endangered myself and a friend who committed suicide 2 weeks after we were suspended but it was for a lot of reasons not because of what happened completely. It has taught me a lesson about drinking and I am very passionate about suicide prevention/awareness

My dad has not been there for me much in my entire life. and he has been through a lot and put me and my brother through a lot. Im still trying to deal with it but it has given me the ability to relate to other people and help each other.
