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.

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

I grew up in a christian home,went to church, involved in youth groups, baptized in high school and then when diagnosed with terminal cancer I flet my faith grow and became more aware of Gods presence in my life.

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

Sunday School Teacher for 5 years at PMUBC, food coordinator for Telecast event at PMUBC for 2 years, volunteer in the nursery, childrens church and vacation bible school.

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

Grandmother being sick in the hospital and watching the nurses care for her with love and compassion made me want to be a RN.

Being a mother has made me watch how my kids are affected by their enviroment

Having cancer has made me want to advocate for other cancer patients – they do not have to do what their doctor tells them and ask for a second- third opinion

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:

Father being an openly gay man and advocating for Gay rights when society was more homophobic than today.

Death of my father has made me see Gods plan and what my father purpose was on earth

When Dad was manic and I needed to advocate for myself then hs mde me dvocate harder,
