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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I became a Christian after experiencing God’s miraculous hand healing my mother when I was a teenager. Shortly, after I personally experienced God’s healing touch as well.

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

Smithtown Gospel Tabernacle
New York, NY
Hospitality Ministry – since 2014

Christ To Conquer The Nations
Montreal, Canada
Interpretor – since 2020

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

Leaving home for a foreign country at 18 for college – although there were some difficult times and challenges at time, it allowed me to mature and develop into the person that I am today.

Persevering in the faith and trusting God to bring like-minded believing friends alongside me. These godly friendships have helped me in my walk.

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:

Experiencing heartbreaks and relationship disappointment – these played a major role in my life because they set me on the path to discovering my true identity in Christ.

Experiencing passive rejection from my father through his absence/lack of involvement in my life – this allowed me to look to God and truly see Him and accept Him as my Heavenly Father.
