I like to work with all ages really. As long as they are open and a team player. Same goes for types. As long as we each respect each other, certain types don’t bother me much.

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

I wish there was a better women’s ministry for working moms, like me. Times when you could get together in the evenings or on the weekends, maybe after church. I feel like most things cater to just sahms.

Your Primary was ‘The Lion’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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 thanks to my husband. He had a desire after we started dating to get back into church. I had been wishy washy previous to that. But thanks to his insisting on us being in church as much as possible, I started to receive the Gospel. I was saved one night after waking up in the middle of the night and realizing that I wasn’t.

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

Word Of God Ministries
Shreveport, LA
Sunday School Group Leader
2 years
