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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

It happened in 2008, during a confirmation class (Preparatory class for those ready to receive Holy Communion) in an Anglican church. Since then I felt this close to God like I could discuss trivial things like what to wear.

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

St. Andrews Anglican Church Warri, Delta State / Treasurer in Girls Guild 2009-2010

All saint Anglican Modakeke Ile-Ife, Osun State/ Ass. media head & Head of Media 2013-2016

St. Andrews Anglican Church Kubwa, Abuja/ Member Media team 2019

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

1. Academic excellence; not like I graduated with a first-class but I stood out among my peers I went for competitions and God helped me to lead teams and be victorious.

2. Financial Breakthrough; I’m not from a wealthy family but throughout my schooling God provided and I didn’t lack. I was on a scholarship from primary till secondary and I got a grant during my university days courtesy competitions I went for.

3. Career growth; I’ve been excelling in my career all thanks to God

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:

1. 1999 My family experienced what we call ‘Job Experience’ we lost everything in the Warri crises and my Dad lost his job so we had to adjust to the ‘new normal’ and my Mom was practically the breadwinner till her death in 2018. My Dad got another job after then but it didn’t last so it was just my Mom running the home.

2. My Mom’s demise in 2018 has helped me understand grief and loss and how to console those experiencing it.

3. When I was diagnosed with Sinusitis in January 2020 and several scary and spiritual illnesses in my life even moments I felt close to death and I miraculously get healed.
