“I thought I was finally 'retired' from church-related positions, so I was surprised when I was invited to join the MCEC Executive Council in 2023,” says Bruce Burgetz, MCEC Executive Council member. “I was intrigued because I knew little about MCEC's workings and impact, but I saw it as a great opportunity to learn and hopefully contribute.”
Bruce has served on the Executive Council for the past 18 months. A member of Toronto United Mennonite Church since 1970, he has held various roles within the congregation. Bruce was on the board of Ten Thousand Villages Canada for nine years, served on the board of the Mennonite New Life Centre (refugee/immigrant settlement services) for over 20 years, and was involved with Aurora House, which supports victims of human trafficking, from 2016 to 2023.
