Administrative history
Officially formed 1925, from amalgamation of Congregationalists, existing local union/united churches (via General Council of Local Union Churches), the Methodist Church (Canada) and approx. 70% of Presbyterian Church in Canada
Custodial history
Initial 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. Further published Year Books were added to the set in 2022.
Scope and content
The collection consists of primarily textual publications of the (national-level) United Church of Canada (UCC), its General Council, Boards and Divisions. Contents include: reproductions of the Basis of Union (1925) and related documents; published reproductions of General Council [meetings], as well as meeting agendas and reports; UCC Year Books, with detailed lists of pastoral charges and various national statistics and reports; multiple editions of the UCC Manual; minutes and reports from the Board of Home Missions, Board of Evangelism and Social Services, Division of Mission, Board of Colleges and Secondary Schools; Division of Ministry Personnel and Education; and published documents of Regina College (1911-1934); and items from St. Andrew's College Diamond Jubilee.
