This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I find it easy to tell faith stories and the reason for the hope that I have, but I often miss encouraging the listener toward his/ her next step.
This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
This is one of my love languages so I find it easy to encourage others and do it often. God shows me ways to encourage others by texting, writing notes/cards, doing something special for them to show them they are loved.
This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Its ‘core’ to me to do the admin job at TMH. Funnily though, I have struggled this past year with feeling like many of my day to day responsibilities are obligations and the Lord showed me that they are privileges instead. So I wonder if I really enjoy ‘serving’ if it makes me feel frustrated or used sometimes.

1. Worship Jesus through music!
2. Spend time doing active things with my grown up kids and husband. !
3. Cross country skiing!
Adults and teenagers. People who are excited about Jesus and who walk the walk! Positive people who are not ‘energy drainers.’
1. Music worship that leads to encounters with Holy Spirit, Jesus and the Father. The real deal!
2. My heart is to see believers grow in their experiences with the living Jesus, and receive ever increasing knowledge of His incredible grace for us, and who experience Him for themselves. Yes! That excites me!
3. A concern of mine is believers who are not walking in freedom. They believe, but are still bogged down by the enemy’s lies! That makes me mad.

Sales, Administration, Homemaking 💕 and the awesome privilege to raise three children.
Musicial abilities, organization, hospitality
As far as school children, you name it! I’ve taught most subjects, and now even woodshop! Haha. Spiritual teaching, nothing formal.
I’m a ‘Positive Patty.’ A good friend once prophesied over me that I am like a ray of sunshine, so I agree with our Daddy, and I partner with Him in being that person.

Your Primary was ‘The Otter’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Retriever’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God
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
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
Grew up in a Christian home as a ‘Sunday Christian.’ Spent much of my adult life like that until 4 years ago when I met the living Jesus. Since then I’ve been growing in His grace and love. My desire for intimacy with Him is increasing as well. He keeps gently moving me along in His love and lessons. I find I’m often overwhelmed by His love and kindness.
