Historical note
The Dundurn group was founded as part of the multi-congregation church of Nordheim in the late 1920s. It functioned as such until the multi-congregation church was dissolved in 1976. It then became an independent congregation called the Dundurn Mennonite Church. The membership in 1976 was 63. It remained at around that number; in 2000 it was 68. The leaders of the congregation were: Henry Kroeger (1976-1989) [he had already been leader since 1973], Henry Sawatzky (1990-1999).
