Please describe your faith. How important is your faith to you?
I trusted in the Lord as my saviour when I was ten years old. I thought I'd grow up to be a missionary, but the world got ahold of me and I didn't do that at all. I love the Lord with all my heart. I am tempted by the world, as we all are in our daily lives. I try to stay in church and go often. I wish I had a partner that would go with me.

Which Scripture verses are most important to you?
II Timothy 2:15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Why is a Christian relationship so important to you?
Because the Lord tells us to not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. I've done that. It didn't work.

Where did you grow up? Where have you traveled? What are some of your favorite places to visit?
I grew up in a small town in Ohio - Germantown. I have traveled from coast to coast and to Europe. I love traveling. I think the West is so beautiful and I love the bright city lights and Broadway in New York City. I've been to Italy, France, Switzerland, but would still love to see Germany and England. I've heard Australia is really neat, so would like to go there someday. I traveled to Boston every other weekend for three months while my husband was there and to Washington, DC several times a month for a year. I love both cities - the museums, the history, theater, the night life (always something going on).

What are your favorite activities both at Church and outside?
Right now my only activity at church is being in charge of decorating the sanctuary and bulletin board. I would like to join the choir because I like to sing, but I haven't made the steps to do it. Outside of church, I have a wide variety of friends and family with whom I travel, go to movies, cook, eat at nice restaurants, go to plays and other activities. I keep pretty busy!

What is your day like? Describe your daily routine.
I like to hit the alarm a few times before I get out of bed. I get ready for work, drive through Tim Horton's to get a cappucino and then drive about a mile to work. I go out for lunch or run errands on my lunch hour everyday. I eat with a variety of friends, my kids or son-in-law for lunch. I usually go right home from work and check out the plants growing in my patio garden and do some watering, read the mail and check out the evening news. Then I usually have an activity like picking up my grandkids and taking them out for dinner, or going to my other daughter's house to eat or help her decorate. Sometimes I refinish furniture, watch TV, go to a movie. I don't have many free evenings - by choice. I take time out to call my Mom and some of my single friends, but am not much of a talker on the phone after working. On the weekends, I try to keep one of the grandkids for a few hours, take them to the pool near my condo or to a movie. I go to church on Sundays and then eat out with one of my siblings and their families or with a friend.

What are some of your personal and spiritual goals?
At this point, without a partner, I haven't set any definite goals. I'd like to retire in the next few years and be able to spend some time traveling. I don't want to retire completely, but would like to work a little less than now. I have a good retirement, so don't need a partner for that. I just would like to find someone to spend the rest of my life with - someone to share a lot of joy and laughter with - someone to dream with and laugh with. I miss snuggling at night and talking - so I guess my immediate goal is to find that someone special and then set more personal and spiritual goals with them. I do want to continue going to church.
