Name of creator
Administrative history
Souris Valley Presbytery was created from the amalgamation of Arcola-Estevan Presbytery with part of Assiniboia Presbytery (the other part joined Moose Jaw Presbytery), ca.1973.
In 2000, Saskatchewan Conference went from 10 presbyteries to 7, with each adopting a new name. Most pastoral charges from Souris Valley Presbytery became part of the new Twin Valleys Presbytery.
Custodial history
Most records in the fonds were likely transferred to the archives between 1925 and 1986, with later additions brought in between ca.1990 and 2011. Their original provenance is unclear, though administrative and committee records may have come directly from presbytery secretaries, committee members, delegates or other associated individuals.
Scope and content
The fonds consists of records generated by the Presbytery, its secretaries, committees and related bodies, in fulfillment of their responsibilities, as outlined in the Manual of the United Church of Canada.
Contents include minutes and correspondence.
