Before coming to Emmanuel Bible College Stephanie went through a lot of phases before deciding on what path to go. Her father didn’t approve of Christian education; especially Bible College. She had been slated to go to the University of Windsor to obtain a degree in social work and before that, the University of Prince Edward Island to become a Veterinarian. After her father left the house, Stephanie was free to go to the place she most wanted to go and that was here at Emmanuel Bible College. She first heard about Emmanuel Bible College from her youth pastor who was an alumnus of the college. She said that he was like a surrogate father to her. So when Stephanie had decided to go into a ministry-type setting it never occurred to her to go anywhere else. When Stephanie completes her program at Emmanuel she wants to go into frontline youth work possible working for an organization like Ray of Hope or Pregnancy Crisis Center.
