In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth — Genesis 1:1
IVAN L. BURGENER
Nov 25, 1932 - July 6th, 2025
We are mourning the loss of our President Emeritus Ivan Burgener, who passed away on
July 6 at the age of 92. He along with Dr. David Menton and Walter Stumper were instrumental
in the St. Louis formation of M.A.C. in the late 1970s. He was an enthusiastic and engaging presenter at
our Monday meetings, a board member, and also served as President for 2007-2015.
Ivan earned his Chemical Engineering degree with honors from the University of Illinois,
and later became a licensed professional engineer in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana and Georgia.
He actively served in numerous Bible ministries throughout his life,
and after his retirement served as Pastor of Affton Grace Bible Church.
Ivan is survived by his loving wife of 71 years, Nina, his children Ruth, Lois, and Tim,
many grandchildren and his brothers, Wilfred and Lowell Burgener.
We rejoice that Ivan is now with his Savior.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” 2 Tim 4:7

Host a movie night
This documentary film features over a dozen scientists and scholars explaining how the world intersects with Genesis. From rock layers to fossils, to lions and stars, this fascinating film will change the way you see the world. The goal of the film is to provide a positive case for Creation in six normal days, a real Adam and Eve, a global flood, and a tower of Babel. Dr. Del Tackett, creator of “The Truth Project,” serves as your guide—hiking through canyons, climbing up mountains, and diving below the sea—in an exploration of two competing views ... one compelling truth.
MAC speakers will be available for Question & Answer session after the film.
Let us partner with you
