Ambrose Ambassador Blogs

There are many things that rhyme with ‘Mo’. Go, so, no … But you know what doesn’t rhyme with ‘Mo’? Do. Why? No idea. But what I do know is that ‘Mo’ is short and sweet – just like me!! I am a student ambassador in my second year at Ambrose! I’m taking a Bachelor of Theology: Church Ministry degree with music and intercultural studies minors. My plan is to go into worship ministry and develop worship teams and leaders all over the world! Here’s some other fun facts you might like to know:

Hi there! My name is Emily Hyrcha, and I’m a Senior Student Ambassador at Ambrose University! I’m going to share a little bit about me, and my journey with Ambrose (the best school everrrr).

Who am I?

So a bit about me… I’m allergic to peanuts (“so fun!” … said no allergic person out there ever), I love the smell of the laundry detergent aisle in grocery stores, and my favourite food is spinach dip. I’m in my fourth year at Ambrose, finishing a Bachelor of Arts in General Studies degree, before starting my Bachelor of Education degree at Ambrose next fall. And let me just tell you this: I. Love. Ambrose. This is by far the best choice that I could have made in terms of post-secondary school. I didn’t always know that though! Fun fact: I was also accepted to both the U of C and Mount Royal. 

My Ambrose Journey

Hey Friends!

My name is Miranda Perry, and I am a Student Ambassador here at Ambrose! I am also a full time student in my final semester of the Bachelor of Theology in Children and Family Ministry! I grew up in a very small town called Oxford, Nova Scotia—which is the blueberry capital of Canada in case you wanted to know.

Some fun facts about me!

• I got married to my high school sweetheart this past June!
• I changed my degree five times before I entered into Children’s Ministry
• I love chips, and I mean chips on any kind—except ketchup—that’s just gross!
• I’m 5 feet tall on a good day
• I’m a resident of Prince Edward Island and I still have yet to meet Anne of Green Gables
• My favorite holiday is Christmas

Hey! My name is Thando Mkhabela and I am a senior student ambassador this year. I’m just here to let you know a little bit about myself as well as my journey at Ambrose. I am currently in my third year in the Behavioural Science (BHS) program. I’m in this program because I enjoy hearing people’s stories. I really like hearing where people have been, the situations they’ve faced and how it has impacted them. Based on all of this, I thought the BHS program would be a great fit and it has definitely turned out to be.

Hi Guys! My name is McKenzie and I am a second year English Literature and Behavioural Science student here at Ambrose. Now you may be asking: why Ambrose? What made you decide that this was where you wanted to get a degree? Believe me, I was asking all of the same questions you are. The answer, it’s NOT that simple. Let me tell you a little bit about who I am and how my journey to Ambrose came about.

Hello. (There goes Adelle’s voice in my head…)

Who Am I?

My name is Anna Zipprick and I’m currently a fourth year student here at Ambrose University. I’m working on my Bachelor of Arts degree in Behavioural Science, and I’ve chosen to specialize my degree in International Community Development. I have a passion for working with international communities of people from all over the world. Because of that, it’s fairly common for me to be volunteering with an ESL class, or working with refugee/immigrant communities in some capacity in my spare time. My goal is to focus my career on those people, either from a ministry, non-profit, or government agency focus.

What program should I take? This is a question that I was asking myself the whole time I was considering universities, and man, it was not an easy one to answer. The degrees that you can take are so unique and all have different pros about them. I remember researching and researching the different program options, and looking at which one would get me closer to my end goal of becoming a teacher.

Hello everyone!

If you have read any of our other blogs, or have spoken to anyone at Ambrose, you may have heard that one of the perks of studying at Ambrose is the small class sizes. You may already know the general pros of small classes, but I'm going to write about how I find it beneficial to be in a small class specifically as a Business student.

This was my first experience of LYC (Legacy Youth Conference) and it was AMAZING! But when someone asked me what my favorite part of the weekend was, I drew a blank! I hadn’t really participated much because I had been busy helping with the info booth, serving meals, helping with entertainment night… But I realized that all of that was my favorite part! I loved helping!
