Custodial history
Materials were likely collected by regional United Church staff and/or volunteers, between 1925 and 1986 -- for reference use, as they are not original records. Their original provenance is unclear but they may have been accumulated by early Saskatchewan Conference (United Church) archivists and/or their Saskatchewan Conference (Methodist) predecessors.
Scope and content
The collection consists of primarily textual items, published by the Methodist Church in Canada. Contents include published Year Books (with minutes of annual Conferences, statistical reports, station lists, etc.), as well as reports from the Methodist Missionary Society and Department of Social Services and Evangelism.
