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: 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 was born and raised in a Pentecostal family which gave me the opportunity to know and experience God from a very small age. In different stages of my life I have experienced God’s hand and how he works miraculously to those who call upon him. Lors has been my comfort during times of loneliness and a guide when I did not know what to do next.

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

India Christian fellowship, Etobicoke. Ontario, 3 years, involved in worship team.

Niagara prayer center, Niagara Ontario, 3 years. Involved in worship team

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

My one year study at the Bible college helped me to get closer to God and build a personal relationship.

Fulfillment of God’s promises in my life.

The peace I experience everytime I spend time at His presence

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:
