Institutionele geschiedenis

Avonlea Pastoral Charge was formed as a new self-sustaining United Church charge in 1925, part of Moose Jaw Presbytery and with appointments at Avonlea and Hearne. By 1940, Sinclair Hill had also been added to the charge. As of 1951, the charge consisted of Avonlea, Crystal Hill and Hearne. Around 1971, the charge amalgamated with Briercrest Pastoral Charge, to form Avonlea-Briercrest Pastoral Charge (later Avonlea - Blue Hill Pastoral Charge), including points at Blue Hill and Hearne.

Institutionele geschiedenis

Briercrest Pastoral Charge was formed as a new self-sustaining United Church charge in 1925, part of Moose Jaw Presbytery and consisting of appointments at Briercrest -- southeast of Moose Jaw -- and Blue Hill (as of 1926). Prior to union, it appears to have been a largely Methodist-served charge that covered the Briercrest and Blue Hill congregations. Additional points in the United Church charge included Tilney (by 1932) and Baildon (by 1940).

Around 1971, the charge amalgamated with Avonlea Pastoral Charge, to form Avonlea-Briercrest Pastoral Charge, including points at Blue Hill and Hearne.

Geschiedenis beheer

Original provenance for many of the records in the fonds is unclear. Initial items were transferred to the archives between 1925 and 1986. Additions were received by Saskatchewan Conference in multiple batches, likely between 2006 and 2018.

Bereik en inhoud

The fonds consists of textual materials generated by Avonlea Pastoral Charge, Briercrest Pastoral Charge, Avonlea – Blue Hill and various constituent churches – their boards, committees and related bodies, local women’s units and other groups.

Contents include: minutes of church boards, sessions, stewards, congregational, trustee and committee meetings; choir, Mission Band and Sunday School records; minutes and financial records from some of the local Ladies Aid Society, Women’s Missionary Society (W.M.S.), Woman’s Association (W.A.), Women’s Federation (W.F.), and United Church Women (U.C.W.) groups; historic rolls and membership records; a Home Mission Record Book from Baildon, ca.1930; and registers documenting baptisms, marriages and burials at Avonlea, Briercrest, Tilney, Blue Hill, Baildon, and related locations. There are also records relating to the Briercrest unit of Canadian Girls in Training (C.G.I.T.).

Ordening

Original order for many of these records is unclear. Items under XV.A and B were arranged and listed as local church records sometime before 1990, with the XV.SC groups added around 2006 and 2009, and the XV.SR group added by 2018. The fonds was created in 2021, based on historical relationships between the congregations involved and the records previously listed.
