SBC celebrates its 2000th graduate!
“We worked for 90 years to get to Payton Falk.”
Payton Falk, SBC’s 2000th graduate, receives his degree from President Dave Reimer on April 26, 2025.
To graduate from Steinbach Bible College is already a high honour, but when it was announced that I was SBC’s 2000th graduate, it left me speechless. SBC has been training servant leaders for almost 90 years, and I have the honour of being the 2000th graduate that SBC is sending back out into the community to love Jesus, serve the church, and engage the world.
There were times I was not even sure if I would make it to graduation. But the community at SBC came around me, encouraged me and, at times, dragged me along. The community at SBC is unparalleled. They say that “community is the context for learning.” This is not just something they say but they live it out as well. The faculty, the staff, and the students all live out this vision, and it makes SBC an incredible place to learn and grow. I am going to miss being at SBC, but I am excited to see how God is going to continue using them to grow the next generation of leaders.
