Embers began with a small group of UBC Sauder students driven by a simple conviction: faith and business do not have to be separate worlds. We believe faith is not just a personal journey, but something that can shape and guide our professional lives as well.

Our mission is to bring together students at Sauder who believe business can be a platform for service, integrity, and leadership. We want to build a community where like-minded people can connect, grow, and challenge one another to live out their faith in the business world.

Through discussion, mentorship, and service, we aim to cultivate a supportive network that inspires responsible leadership and meaningful impact, both on campus and beyond.

If you have ever felt the tension between your faith and your ambition, you are not alone. This community is for you.

Living Faith

“For we live by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7 (NIV)

As a community of believers, we commit to living out our faith in everything we do, trusting God's promises and acting on them with courage. We believe true faith is active, shaping how we study, lead, serve, and walk through uncertainty.

Stewardship

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:10 (NIV)

We recognize that every skill and opportunity we have is entrusted to us by God. We value faithful stewardship by using our gifts to serve others well, pursue excellence with integrity, and advance work that reflects His goodness.
