#1 Gift, Serving (81%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
When I was a teacher, I needed to be organized. I also have history in the church which lends itself to knowing some of the past practices.

#2 Gift, Giving (71%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have been a member of this church for more than 40 years. As with any generation, there are members of the community who know that Mark and I are active in the church. It makes it easier for them to make a connection through someone they know. I don’t believe that I am a good visitor and I am not good about inviting individuals to church.

#3 Gift, Exhortation/Encouragement (62%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have been the recipient of encouragement in my life, I understand what it means to receive a card or to know that someone is thinking about you. I witnessed amazing and generous hospitality when I was a child and I have experienced it as an adult from this congregation and the greater community.

Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, 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

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
