Historical note

Nutana Park Mennonite Church began when First Mennonite Church in Saskatoon decided in 1963 to establish a congregation in the Nutana Park area of Saskatoon. Part of the implementation of that decision was to build a meeting house in the Nutana Park area. In 1965 the meeting house was completed, and in 1966 the congregation was formally organized with 106 charter members. The congregation grew quickly so that in 1975 its membership stood at 257. In 1990 it was 309 and in 2000 it was 281. The leaders of the congregation were: Jacob Nickel (1965-1967, 1986), Ernest Baergen (1968-1969), Verner Friesen (1970-1981), Lloyd Ratzlaff (1982-1983), Joan and Ed Pries (1984-1985), Vern Ratzlaff (1987- ).
