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

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

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

The year after my dad passed away, I became a Christian when YWAM came to the church I attended when I was 16 years old. I was baptised a year later.

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

Youth Group helper at Victory Church

VBS both at Dutchess Mennonite Church and Brooks EFree Church.

Helped out with the Rodeo Pancake Breakfast at EFree Church.

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

Rod and I getting married

Helping with the youth at Victory Church

A wonderful relationship with Rod’s mother Eileen.

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:

Being bullied during my Junior and Senior High School years.

Loss of my dad to cancer when I was just 15 years old

Struggling with Rod’s health issues and on top of that struggling to find a stable career and to keep it.
