I was surprised that “Serving” was one of my top three gifts. I do enjoy serving however, I must admit that I am a bit picky in this department! I do pray often that God show me ways in which I can serve Him as I feel I don’t do enough of it.

[H]eart

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

2. Train and educate people in ways that enhance or bring value to their lives.

3. Manage my money and actively work on my financial plan in order to accomplish all of my financial goals.

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

I love working with kind, respectful, ambitious individuals who know what they want and are going after it. I also enjoy people who are open to feedback and are “coachable”.

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

As much as I LOVE Grace Church, I really wish they would have more programs and ministry for young, single people. By young, I mean, people between the ages of 20-50. I am a single person and would love more opportunities to connect with people my age who are single.

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

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I’ve believed in Jesus for as long as I can remember. I grew up Lutheran and had A LOT of questions as I was growing up…my relationship with God has definitely ebbed and flowed quite a bit over the years based on my attitude, beliefs and life circumstances but somehow, I am always lead back to Him.

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

Not much that I can recall, sadly..other than requirements for Confirmation. I helped out at Grace’s work day, though.

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

Graduating college with Honors

Being accepted into Mayo Clinic medical school where there was only 10 slots available

Getting married and divorced

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:

Having a chronic pain condition

Getting divorced

Being adopted
