3. I love to play my instrument to praise God

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

I like mature young people and adults, over 18, but I have no problem working with younger people

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

Nowadays, what worries me most is whether we are being effective in our ministries, whether we are communicating the word properly, whether people are seeing Christ through us, whether people are growing in Christ. I understand that the work in each person does not belong to us, but what concerns me is whether our part as a church is being effectively accomplished.

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
