| HISTORY/BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: | Southminster United Church was constituted in 1967 in the Westbrook area of south Edmonton. In 1977 Southminster United Church established a second congregation named for missionary Henry Bird Steinhauer. The congregation was constituted Steinhauer United Church in 1983. Steinhauer United Church continued to share a minister and office space with Southminster after forming the separate congregation. In 1993, Steinhauer United Church amalgamated with Southminster to form Southminster-Steinhauer United Church. It is the single point of the Southminster-Steinhauer Pastoral Charge and is located in the Edmonton Presbytery. |
| CUSTODIAL HISTORY: | Records deposited under accession number PR1975.0387 were acquired sometime prior to 1975 however there is no surviving record of the details. In 1975, the Conference entered into a permanent loan agreement with the Provincial Archives of Alberta (PAA) for the physical custody and control of the holdings of the Conference Archives and the records were relocated to the PAA in that same year. Records received after 1975 have come from the congregation, church members, or officers of the presbytery or the Conference. |
