After the German army retreated and the Soviets regained control of the village, it was further reported that the monument was again taken down, never to be seen until discovered by Shtatshy in 2021.

During his childhood Max lived in Upper Chortitza, a suburb of Zaporizhia, Ukraine. This suburb was part of the former Mennonite village of Chortitza and one of the first villages established by Mennonite settlers in 1789. <br />
After completing high school in 2005, Max attended and graduated from the Zaporizhian National University with a degree in history. In 2010, he was hired by the Khortytsia National Reserve in Zaporozhia. <br />
In 2011, after attaining the position of research scientist, Max began conducting research on the history of the former Mennonite colonists of Chortitza. <br />
His interest in researching Mennonite history was cultivated during his childhood. Listening to stories from residents in his neighbourhood, he learned that in the past Upper Chortitza was home to a group of colonists that spoke German and had traditions that were foreign to him. <br />
Later in life it became apparent to him that the Mennonites had made a significant contribution to Ukrainian culture, life and agriculture. His childhood curiosity led him to a career path of studying and resurrecting the history of the Mennonites in Ukraine. <br />
In July of 2019, after many years of planning and preparation, Max began the excavation of an abandoned building in Upper Chortitza. The project was initiated in response to a well-known rumour that the building foundation contained gravestones from the former Chortitza Mennonite church cemetery. The cemetery had been destroyed by Soviet authorities in the late 1930s. <br />
After a few months of work, the excavation uncovered over 100 gravestones and pieces of gravestones belonging to Mennonites of the Chortitza church. The excavated stones were later transported and stored at a Khortytsia National Reserve compound. In 2020-2021 Max organized the construction of a memorial located on Khortitsa Island that contained 15 restored gravestones. The memorial was completed in June of 2021.<br />
In June of 2020 Max embarked on another Mennonite gravestone project that involved Jabob Hoeppner. <br />
During his research, Max became aware that in 1973 the Jacob Hoeppner memorial monument, along with two Hoeppner headstones, had been purchased and taken to Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada, and put on display at the Mennonite Heritage Village. <br />
Further research by Max Shtatsky revealed that the Hoeppner gravesite had been abandoned with no markers to identify its location. Determined to resurrect the legacy of delegate Jacob Hoeppner, he embarked on a second gravestone project. <br />
During the summer months of 2020, Max and a few other historians located the abandoned gravesite and the base of the former monument. After the area was cleared of underbrush and debris two replica headstones were created to mark the graves of Jacob Hoeppner, his wife Sara Dueck, their youngest son Jacob and his wife Anna Brandt, and placed on their original locations. A story board with a narrative on the Jacob Hoeppner was later added to the gravesite. <br />
In 2021 Max became involved in locating pieces of the Mennonite Centennial monument that had once been located in the village of Chortitza. (Insert historic photo and extended caption)<br />
Max located one missing piece of the monument that had been buried in a wooded area approximately 90 meters from its original 1890s location. Two inscriptions were visible on the massive granite square weighing approximately 1.8 tons. They read: ''Zum Andenken'' (German: In memoriam)) and ''первые поселенцы'' (Russian: first settlers). The stone was transported to a Khortytsia National Reserve (KNR) compound. <br />
With this piece safely stored at the KNR, the search for the remaining sections of the monument was a priority for Max. It was always his intention to continue the search for the remaining pieces. Sadly, his tragic death cut short the life of this young Ukrainian historian and the further contributions he could have made to the understanding of the Mennonite experience in Ukraine. <br />

The Dillon Creek Amish Mennonite Church near Tremont, [[Illinois (USA)|Illinois]], was organized as a congregation in 1837 under the leadership of Bishop Andrew Ropp. It was sometimes called the Tremont congregation and later took the name Pleasant Grove Amish Mennonite Church. It sometimes struggled as a congregation, losing members to the [[Fellowship of Evangelical Churches|Defenseless Mennonites]] and the [[Central Conference Mennonite Church|Joseph Stuckey Mennonites]], and later the [[Apostolic Christian Church of America|Apostolic Christian]] and [[Sleeping Preacher Churches|"sleeping preacher"]] groups, and even divine healing preacher, [[Dowie, John Alexander (1847-1907)|John Alexander Dowie]].<br />
<br />
The Dillon Creek Amish built their first meetinghouse in 1879, after which they soon initiated a [[Sunday School|Sunday school]].<br />
<br />
Pleasant Grove was part of the [[Western District Amish Mennonite Conference]] until that conference dissolved, and its Illinois congregations joined the [[Illinois Mennonite Conference (Mennonite Church USA)|Illinois Mennonite Conference]] in 1920.<br />
<br />
Pleasant Grove had sponsored a Sunday school in Morton, Illinois, beginning in 1939, with preaching services twice a month.<br />
<br />
In 1941, Pleasant Grove merged with the [[Goodfield Mennonite Church (Goodfield, Illinois, USA)|Goodfield congregation]] and erected a new building in Morton. The merged congregation called itself the [[First Mennonite Church of Morton (Morton, Illinois, USA)|Morton Mennonite Church]].<br />

Rudolf "Rudie" Willms: pastor and radio broadcaster; born 13 June 1934 in [[Hepburn (Saskatchewan, Canada)|Hepburn]], Saskatchewan, Canada. His parents were Johann Willms (23 May 1905, [[Tiege (Molotschna Mennonite Settlement, Zaporizhia Oblast, Ukraine)|Tiege]], Molotschna, South Russia – 15 February 1977, [[Abbotsford (British Columbia, Canada)|Abbotsford]], British Columbia, Canada) and Helena (Isaac) Willms (23 September 1905, Tiege, Molotschna, South Russia – 4 May 1992, Abbotsford, British Columbia), who recently escaped the [[Russian Revolution and Civil War|Russian Revolution]]. He was the fourth child in a family of six sons and two daughters. On 20 August 1959 Rudie married Louise Klassen (8 July 1933, Crowfoot, Alberta, Canada – 21 October 2023, Langley, British Columbia), daughter of John C. Klassen (1890-1969) and Elisabeth (Martens) Klassen (1892-1945), in Abbotsford, British Columbia. Rudie and Louise had three sons: Edward, Roger, and Barry. Rudie died on 3 December 2020 in Abbotsford, British Columbia, where he was buried.<br />
<br />
Early in life Rudie developed a deep and personal relationship with God and at age 15 was baptised in the [[Matsqui Mennonite Brethren Church (Matsqui, British Columbia, Canada)|Matsqui Mennonite Brethren Church]] in BC. It was there he recognized a call to pastoral ministry which would become his driving life focus. He engaged in Biblical training at [[Mennonite Brethren Bible Institute (Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada)|Mennonite Brethren Bible Institute]] in Abbotsford, [[Mennonite Brethren Bible College (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada)|Mennonite Brethren Bible College]] in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and enjoyed three sabbaticals at [[Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary (Fresno, California, USA)|Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary]] in Fresno, California. <br />
<br />
During his first year of college in Winnipeg, Rudie determined life would be richer if he could share it with Louise, who had caught his eye as a teenager in Matsqui. She was dumbfounded by his letter of proposal but accepted it with full devotion. She would become his strongest ally and teammate amidst the next 61 years of adventure and challenge. <br />
<br />
Vocational ministry began in 1960 when together they were appointed city missionaries in [[Winnipeg (Manitoba, Canada)|Winnipeg]]. Their first endeavor was to plant [[Logan Avenue Mennonite Brethren (MB) Church (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada)|Logan Avenue Mennonite Brethren Church]] (officially recognized in 1963 and later renamed as Salem MB). In 1965 Rudie was invited to full time radio ministry with Gospel Light Hour in Winnipeg. This was an intense season of preaching and deputation work in central Canada. Their deep love for the local church however led them back to pastoral ministry when they were called to [[Ross Road Community Church (Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada)|East Aldergrove MB Church]] in 1970. They had 14 years of fruitful ministry until 1984 when they transitioned to [[Culloden Mennonite Brethren Church (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)|Culloden MB Church]], where they served until 2000. At that juncture [[Scott Street Mennonite Brethren Church (St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada)|Scott Street MB Church]] in Ontario invited their service and they relocated to Ontario for the next 5 years. <br />
<br />
Rudie loved the pastoral rhythms of prayer, preaching, teaching, and visitation. He took his calling seriously, striving to live an authentic life of love and holiness. He served in various size churches but found his niche as a shepherd. In particular, he was drawn to individuals on the fringes, people often discarded. His impact in their lives was seldom acknowledged as he seldom disclosed these stories, opting to honor people’s privacy. He would take phone calls or meet for coffee at all hours of the day or night with folks struggling with mental health, relational, and spiritual hardships. He sought to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Louise joined him in these connections, utilizing her gifts of hospitality and opening their home to many.<br />
<br />
Rudie and Louise were also passionate about global mission. Rudie served on the board of [[Mennonite Brethren Missions/Services International (Mennonite Brethren Church)|Mennonite Brethren Missions/Services International]] (now Multiply), and was blessed to travel to numerous outposts in [[Asia (1955)|Asia]], [[Europe]], and the Caribbean. Usually traveling as a couple, they developed lasting friendships with numerous missionaries, serving as mentors and prayer partners.<br />
<br />
Attuned to the high toll on ministry families, Rudie attempted to keep his family top priority, raising three rambunctious sons. As the family grew and daughters-in-law were added, Rudie and Louise gladly traveled long distances, often at great cost, to support their kids and grandchildren. <br />
<br />
Near the end of his career, Rudie served as Senior’s Pastor at Ross Road MB Church where so much of ministry had begun. The final years found them faithfully leading worship services at [[Tabor Home Society (Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada)|Tabor Court]], a senior’s home in Abbotsford. Health issues began to mount nudging Rudie to reluctantly step back. Alzheimer’s had begun to ravage his mind and body, so when COVID-19 found him early in the Pandemic, he had no strength left to fight. <br />
<br />
On 3 December 2020 Rudie quietly slipped into the presence of his Savior. Although the COVID-19 restrictions prevented family from being with him those last days, they took comfort that Rudie was welcomed into glory with the words "well done, good and faithful servant." <br />

The New Castle Mennonite Church (also called Newcastle Mennonite Church) near Mackinaw, [[Illinois (USA)|Illinois]], began in 1936, first as a [[Summer Bible School]] location, and in 1940 as a Sunday school outreach of the [[Goodfield Mennonite Church (Goodfield, Illinois, USA)|Goodfield Mennonite Church]], with some help from the [[Hopedale Mennonite Church (Hopedale, Illinois, USA)|Hopedale]] congregation. When Goodfield merged with [[First Mennonite Church of Morton (Morton, Illinois, USA)|Pleasant Grove]] in 1941, responsibility for the work changed to the Morton Mennonite Church. Regular worship services began in 1941.<br />
<br />
The [[Illinois Mennonite Mission Board]] organized the group as a rural mission church in December 1936 at the New Castle schoolhouse near Mackinaw, Illinois. By 16 March 1947, the congregation had 47 members.<br />
<br />
In late 1948, the Goodfield Mennonite Church purchased and remodeled the schoolhouse. It dedicated the renovated building on 10 April 1949. The New Castle Bible Church enlarged the sanctuary in 1958 and added an education wing in 1971. It built a parsonage in 1978. Further additions and buildings were added in 1991, 1998, and 2008.<br />
<br />
Robert Zehr and Harold Oyer, the early pastors at New Castle, were among Illinois Mennonite Conference pastors influenced by fundamentalism. They felt distinctive Mennonite practices, such as insisting ministers wear the "plain coat," hindered outreach. In 1952, New Castle withdrew from the conference and became an independent Bible church, which it has remained. At the same time it changed its name to New Castle Bible Church.<br />
