Anni (Dyck) Wiebe Scholarship
The Anni (Dyck) Wiebe Scholarship has been established with Canadian Mennonite University. This scholarship has been created in honour and memory of the life of Anni (Dyck) Wiebe.
Anni (Dyck) Wiebe had a keen interest in expanding and integrating her understandings of her Anabaptist-Mennonite faith and her psychiatric nursing career. A perceptive listener, she sought to translate these understandings into concrete action in working directly with colleagues, troubled children and struggling adults in her chosen occupation and elsewhere as a volunteer. She accomplished much at the individual, interactive level where she preferred to apply her personable efforts.
