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

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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Came to Christ in 4th Grade during Vacation Bible at Orchards Community and was Baptized at the age of 9.

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

Served in AWANA (15 yrs), Sunday School Teacher (3 yrs), music specials (20 +), choir (whenever there was one), choir director (1 year for Easter) and was church Secretary/Treasurer (3 years) all at Orchards Community. Sunday School Teacher (4 years), special music (15 years), choir director (three times for special Sundays), directed children’s Christmas program (2 years) at First Baptist Church in Clarkston. Helped with video during Subnday services once a month (4 years), ran video/sound for ladies Bible Studies and facilitated some ladies Bible classes (4 years) at Crosspoint Alliance Church in Lewiston.

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

Growing up with a Grandfather who was a Pastor and taught me to sing at age 3 in church. Influenced my life by being an example of a Godly man.

Attending Youth Group and studying under the Youth Pastor at that time.

Learning about the experiences of many Missionaries and how God used them to reach others around the world.

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 an “outcast” for being church goer.

Going through a couple of “church splits”.

Trying to counsel a friend in high school who was contemplating an abortion and still being a friend even though she went through with it.
