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 Synod (Presbyterian) predecessors.

Scope and content

The collection consists of publications relating the Women's Missionary Society of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. Contents include: reports of the Women's Foreign Missionary Society, Women's Home Missionary Society (Western Division), Women's Missionary Society; an issue of the publication "The Message" (1902); and history books/documents about church missions and missionary work.
