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.

Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I as long as I could remember I loved going to church. When I was 16 yrs old I realized I would go to hell if I did not ask God to forgive of my sins. So I did and was baptized at 17 yrs old

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

Was baptized at Tower Hill Missionary Church in Jamaica 1977. moved away and became a member of the Pentecostal gospel Temple, where I was baptized in Jesus name.

I then went back to Tower Hill where I served as women fellowship president, Sunday school superintendent and District coordinator for women fellowship.

was also in charge of the Golden age club.

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

I went back to collage at the age of 46 and did a 4 yrs degree and was able to graduate with my batch mates while being a wife, mother and having a full time job.

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:

My son’s death was devastating to me but I can now used that experience to encourage others who might be mourning a loved one.

Being a single parent and raising 4 children on my own, I can encourage other single parents that with the help of God they too can do it.

The infidelity and divorce of my marriage was one experience was one that impacted me in a negative way for years, but with much prayer, fasting and support of friends, I was able to overcome.
Now am able to encourage others that God can give peace and happiness once more.
