My Ideal Person
I am looking for an individual who is confident in who he is and in his relationship with God. I would like to meet someone who enjoys going to church and participating in a variety of activities. The special someone for me would want to build a relationship the right way--starting as friends first and possibly leading to a long-time committment. Hope to hear from some interesting gentlemen.

Favorite films: Shall we Dance, The Notebook, The English Patient, Evita,

Please describe your faith. How important is your faith to you?
My faith has pulled me through some difficult times. God continues to watch over and protect me and guide my life.

Which Scripture verses are most important to you?
Have to think on this one.

Why is a Christian relationship so important to you?
A Christian relationship is extremely important to me because God has to be the basis of the relationship. The bible tells us how to live and conduct our lives; and if we believe the bible, it needs to be incorporated in our lives. Committment is very important in a relationship because two become one under God. Asking Him to bless a relationship is one of the most important things in life.

Where did you grow up? Where have you traveled? What are some of your favorite places to visit?
I was born and grew up in a small town about 30 miles from Chicago, Crete. I left there four years ago and relocated to Arizona. I have travelled many places, especially crusies. I had the opportunity to travel to Italy and would like to revisit. Someday, a trip to Germany will be planned. Since moving to the southwest, I have been enjoying visiting areas around Phoenix. Our family went to Disneyland over Christmas--that was wild--especially Space Mountain.

What are your favorite activities both at Church and outside?
For the past three years, I have been President of the LWML at our Lutheran church. For the past two years, I have taught a bible study on Sunday mornings. Right now, I am taking a quarter off to refresh and regroup.

What is your day like? Describe your daily routine.
I wake at 6 am, get ready for work, take care of my pets needs, pack lunch, coffee, etc. I usually get to work about one hour before everyone else and do computer backups, cleanups, or whatever before everyone starts signing in. This also allows me to leave early and miss all the rush hour traffic. I usually come straight home to take care of my dog, make a salad or light dinner, watch TV or a movie, play computer games, or call friends. I also like walking my dog in the evening. The beautiful stars and moon in Arizona skies usually put a calming effect on a hectic day. Early to bed, early to rise, makes a woman healty, wealthy, and wise.

What are some of your personal and spiritual goals?
My biggest personal and spiritual goal is to continue my walk with Jesus Christ, my savior. I really would love to have a helpmate--someone to talk over problems, share stories, enjoy family holidays and get-togethers, and enjoy each other's company for the rest of our life.
