My Ideal Person
I AM LOOKING FOR A CHRISTIAN MAN WHO STANDS ON HIS OWN TWO FEET AND THE WORD OF GOD. SOME ONE WHO IS SERIOUS ENOUGH TO WANT COMMITTMENT BUT LIKES TO LET LOOSE AND HAVE FUN. SOMEONE WHO IS YOUNG AT HEART AND NOT SO SET IN HIS WAYS THAT HE REFUSES TO TRY NEW EXPERIENCES. SOMEONE CAPABLE OF BEING LOVING AND GIVING. SOMEONE WHO RECOGNIZES WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER IS RARE THESE DAYS AND FINDS HIMSELF THINKING OF ME WHEN HE SHOULD BE CONCENTRATING ON WORK! SOMEONE WHO FINDS THAT HE CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT ME AND WANTS TO PUT ME FIRST IN HIS LIFE AFTER THE LORD AS I WOULD CERTAINLY PUT HIM! ARE YOU OUT THERE?

Please describe your faith. How important is your faith to you?
My faith is very strong. I have been through alot in my life and would never have survived without The Lord.

Which Scripture verses are most important to you?
TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL THINE HEART AND LEAN NOT UNTO THINE OWN UNDERSTANDING.PROVERBS 3:5 THAT IF YOU CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT GOD RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD, YOU WILL BE SAVED. ROMANS 10:9

Why is a Christian relationship so important to you?
WE HAVE NO GUARANTEE THAT ANY RELATIONSHIP WILL LAST BUT I BELIEVE THAT IF THE LORD COMES FIRST IN A RELATIONSHIP, IT HAS MUCH BETTER ODDS THAN IF HE ISN'T. I'VE TRIED IT THE OTHER WAY, BUT IT ALWAYS FAILS. WHEN YOU BELONG TO JESUS, IT IS FOR KEEPS AND HE WILL NOT STAND FOR ANYONE TO INTERFERE WITH THAT SPECIAL BOND.

Where did you grow up? Where have you traveled? What are some of your favorite places to visit?
I GREW UP IN CONNELLSVILLE,PA. LIVED IN WHEELING, W.VA. FROM 1979-1987, THEN BACK TO PA. I HAVE BEEN TO ALOT OF NEIGHBORING STATES AND NEARLY ALL DOWN THE COAST TO FLORIDA. I'VE BEEN TO TEXAS, IDAHO AND MOST RECENTLY I TOOK MY FIRST EVER TRIP OUT OF THE COUNTRY TO CANCUN, MEXICO! I LOVE OUR LOCAL MOUNTAINS AND FIND MUCH PEACE THERE, ESPECIALLY AT THE YOUGH RIVER FALLS AT OHIOPYLE,PA.

What are your favorite activities both at Church and outside?
I LOVE SINGING AND MUSIC, COUNTRY AND SPIRITUAL ARE MY FAVORITE, BUT I LISTEN TO MOST ANYTHING, DEPENDING ON THE MOOD. CHURCH ACTIVITIES I LOVE TO HELP WITH ARE FUND RAISING DINNERS AND ALSO BIBLE SCHOOL. OUTDOOR ACTIVITES ARE MY FAVORITE IN APPROPRIATE WEATHER, BUT I DON'T CARE FOR EXTREME HEAT OR COLD. I LOVE TO SWIM AND GO BOATING. ANYTHING INVOLVING WATER EXCITES ME. I LOVE THE THEATER, LIVE PLAYS, OCCASIONALLY A CONCERT. I LOVE TO DANCE. FOR EXERCISE, I LOVE TO WALK, RIDE BIKES, DO LOW IMPACT AEROBICS. I DON'T WATCH MUCH TV, BUT ENJOY AN OCCASIONAL DRAMA OR COMEDY. I DO NOT LIKE THE REALITY TV SHOWS THAT ARE FLOODING THE SCREENS THESE DAYS! I'D RATHER WATCH OLD RERUNS OF LEAVE IT TO BEAVER OR THE BRADY BUNCH!

What is your day like? Describe your daily routine.
MY DAILY ROUTINE VARIES DEPENDING ON WHICH DAYS I WORK. I AM AN RN IN A 17 BED ICU. I WORK 3/12 HR SHIFTS A WEEK. THAT IS FULL-TIME. I AM IN CHARGE MOST DAYS I'M AT WORK SO I TRY TO BE WELL RESTED PRIOR TO THE START OF MY DAY OR NIGHT. EVERYDAY INVOLVES FEEDING MY 2 CATS AND 1 DOG. EVERYDAY INVOLVES PRAYER AND LONG TALKS WITH THE LORD. I TRY TO INCLUDE SCRIPTURE READING DAILY ALSO. I CALL MY MOM EVERYDAY TO CHECK ON HER AND VARIOUS OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS, INCLUDING MY ADULT CHILDREN AND LOVELY 5 YR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER! I CHECK EMAIL MOST EVERYDAY. I TRY TO PLAN FUN ACTIVITIES ON MY DAYS OFF AND ALSO GO TO SEE MY ELDERLY MOM AND DO LITTLE ERRANDS FOR HER AROUND THE HOUSE. I LOVE TO GARDEN AND MAKE AND CAN SALSA! CAN'T WAIT TO GET IN THERE SOON. I ALSO LOVE FLOWERS AND PLANTS. I HAVE SEVERAL FLOWER GARDENS AS WELL.

What are some of your personal and spiritual goals?
MY #1 GOAL BOTH PERSONAL AND SPIRITUAL IS ETERNAL LIFE! I WANT TO CONTINUE TO GROW IN CHRIST AND HELP OTHERS ALONG THEIR JOURNEY. I HOPE TO FIND SOMEONE TO SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE WITH AS LIFE IS TOO SHORT AND MOVING FAST! I HAVEN'T HAD MUCH LUCK IN THIS AREA IN THE PAST, BUT THAT IS MOST LIKELY DUE TO POOR CHOICES AND THE INABILITY TO KNOW WHEN IT WAS TIME TO WALK AWAY!
