#1 Gift, Giving (68%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I would like to think I give a lot of my time for the edification of the church or just help the people in charge. And giving my time is giving a part of my life.

#2 Gift, Serving (62%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I’ve seen to found myself in positions where there is no other person with availability or attitude to commit towards the most basic of tasks but ultimately it’s for God.

#3 Gift, Teaching (53%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I’ve only taught to 4-year-olds who are more excited to hear what we are having for a snack than what I have to say about Jesus. But if needed in a small task I will perform.

[H]eart

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

1. Helping out others who need help.

2. Listening to others that go through almost any circumstance/situation in life and provide comfort that someone is there with them that is listening and cares.

3. Having a good relationship with my family and friends.

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

When it comes to age I really don’t see that much as a circumstance for me to work with as I will always try to be respectful towards their experience and relate. Type of people isn’t a problem as long as it’s not someone who isn’t open to possibilities or just a one-way street.

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

Concerns: Do we have enough capable people willing to do multiple jobs for this church plant. People who will sacrifice and suffer for what’s to come. The enemy’s coming for us, are we ready?
Excites: A mission to bring people to Christ and in people I mean people my age, heritage, and proletariat teens.
