Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, 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

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

All of my life if I worked hard I was successful. I went through infertility treatment and it did not work no matter how hard I tried with medical help. One night all alone I laid down, face down and arms out and told God out loud that I surrender myself and the out come to Him. He knew the desire of my heart, but I would find joy in whatever He had planned for me. I completely surrendered my life to him.

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

Worked in Children’s Ministry as a teacher/shepherd for 19 years.

Last 5 years have facilitated/lead a group of women in Women’s Ministry.

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

I come from a loving family. My mother was my best friend.

I have an adopted 22 year old daughter with whom God has blessed me. Being a mom has been a blessing to me.

I have attended Pacific Coast Church since 1999 and have been blessed!

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:

I went through infertility and the adoption process.

I went through a horrible divorce.

I have had financial challenges subsequently, but the Lord has always amazingly provided just what I needed at the time I needed it!
