On June 11, Grace-Westminster United Church will present historical walking tours to mark the 140th anniversary of this Saskatoon church and the surrounding neighborhood. Along the tour path, actors will play the roles of people from the congregation’s early days. As a finale to the event, Pamela Haig Bartley will present a short play about temperance advocate, Grace Fletcher and her conflict with her husband and the authorities over the “demon rum”. It is of note that the Grace in the church’s name celebrates the spirit of this indominable woman.
Come for an afternoon of humour and history, story and song. Tickets (by donation) are available at the office of the church. For more information, visit the church website (www.gracewest.ca).
