Who we are
Saskatoon Native Circle Ministry (SNCM) provides prayer, crisis counselling, nourishment, clothing and a weekly worship Circle to people on the margins of society. The ministry provides a sense of belonging, care, and inclusion for people of all nations, though the activities uphold Indigenous cultural practices.
Through a mid-week worship Circle and an art program, people from all walks of life experience the love of God and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Some individuals who seek refuge at SNCM face poverty, abuse, alcoholism and life on the streets, and the ministry honours those stories, while sharing the good news of Jesus’ love

Saskatoon Native Circle Ministry History
Saskatoon Native Circle Ministry began as a house ministry in 1980 under the direction of Rev. Stephen How in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Back then it was called The Native Fellowship.
In 1981, it moved to Saskatoon as a house ministry and in 1986, it shared worship space with the Circle West P.C. Under the leadership of Rev. Stewart Folster, in the 1990’s, the ministry changed its name to Saskatoon Native Circle Ministry. Mrs. Terry Folster and the ladies from the Native Circle introduced the circle worship and the traditional smudging ceremony and other elements of Native Spirituality were incorporated into the worship and the ministry.
The current location of this ministry is in the inner-city of Saskatoon ( 450-20th Street West ), eight blocks from downtown, where the majority of the First Nations of Saskatoon are situated. The programs include: A Sandwich Monday program that is supported by the Presbyterian churches in the city and by the Presbytery of Northern Saskatchewan and by their twinning partners from St. Andrew St. Paul Presbyterian Church in Montreal, Quebec. Local members of the Presbyterian Churches donate 10 loaves of sandwiches every Monday. Their programs also include: a mission outreach program where more sandwiches are served on Tuesday, and Thursday. A hot meal is served every Friday, this could be anything from soup to casseroles. 100-200 street people drop in every day to receive sandwiches, coffee, juice, and cookies. Wednesday is worship day and fellowship time beginning at 2pm. More food is served after worship.

May your light illuminate our hearts
Eternal God, this holy night is radiant with the brilliance of your one true light. May that light illuminate our hearts and shine in our words and deeds. May the hope, the peace, the joy, and the love represented by the birth in Bethlehem this night fill our lives and become part of all that we say and do. May we share the divine life of your son Jesus Christ, even as he humbled himself to share our humanity. Amen.
