“It is easier to build a child than to fix an adult”

The Society for Orphaned Children in Canada

About the Author

 Elizabeth Wiebe was born in post World War Two Winnipeg, Manitoba to German-Mennonite parents who had emigrated from Russia as children.  By the age of seven, she was an orphan and thereafter lived with relatives.

 

   Today she is an experienced health care professional with careers in Intensive Care nursing, nurse practitioner in Northern Manitoba and various positions in the pharmaceutical industry.  She currently lives in Ottawa, Ontario. 

 

   Elizabeth has a wry sense of humour and enjoys painting and reading during her quieter moments.

 

    The author is intense, driven and committed to the pursuit of truth and integrity.  She brings to the issue of orphans the same intensity and drive for results that she has to every aspect of her life. Elizabeth has spent her life trying to bring effectiveness to all aspects of treating human ailments. 

 

   Her hope now is to lighten the load of orphans and bring them to a point of healing.
