This commemorative volume offers a chronicle of the First Presbyterian Church in Regina over its first fifty years, from 1925 to 1975. While the author is not formally identified, the Preface by Rev. J.J. Harrold Morris suggests the text was likely written by Mr. Gordon Connell, a founding member of the congregation. The book opens with a historical overview of Presbyterianism in Regina prior to 1925, followed by sections detailing the organization and construction of the First Presbyterian Church. A substantial chapter is devoted to the 1925 church union that created the United Church of Canada, with the final three chapters structured around the ministerial eras of successive church leaders.
