Eastside United Church - Regina, SK

Eastside United Church - Regina, SK Eastside United is a vibrant, happy, healthy congregation blessed to be in Shared Ministry with Bread of Life Lutheran and St Philip Anglican. We have pets.

As an Affirming Ministry, we work towards an intentional welcome that recognizes the goodness of God as found in the variations of sexual orientation, gender identity, age, racial background, ethnicity, culture, family configuration, economic circumstances, ability, gender, beliefs, personality, and appearances. We celebrate diversity and honour differences as we work towards continually understan

ding what it means to be an inclusive community. For 11 years, we have enjoyed our current location on Doan Drive after many years as a Mission Congregation in east Regina. Eastside draws from the geographic areas surrounding it and from the larger city and surrounding communities, such as Pilot Butte and White City. Our demographic is largely professional and many members have post-secondary education, mobility and spending power. We are also diverse. We are married, divorced, separated, widowed, single, living together, and friends-sharing-homes. We have young children, grown children, grandchildren and no children. We are healthy and some of us live with chronic pain or physical challenges. Some of us have survived cancer and others of us have lost family members to cancer. We are alcoholic and sober; we struggle with weight, depression, anxiety and broken relationships within our families. We worry about our parents and we worry about our teenagers. We are straight and gay. We come from many religious backgrounds. We come to church because we like the people; we come because we want to learn about God; we come because it lifts our spirits. Sometimes we come just to sit and be. In May 2008, we decided to become more intentional about our welcome to gay and lesbian folks and so we began the Affirming Ministries process. Worship matters to us. We value meaningful sermons and moving music and we like it when people tell their faith stories on Sunday. We also like it when 50 kids come for Sunday School, and when drum, guitar, flute, trumpet or violin complement our piano.

Jeffery Straker Concert Tickets are still available! Please contact us if you are interested in learning more.

Singer-songwriter pianist Jeffery Straker serves up a rootsy-storytelling brand of song that has been said to transport listeners - out onto a northern Canadian Lake or to the main street of a prairie town.

With critical comparisons to the likes of Kris Kristofferson, Jackson Browne and Murray McLauchlan, he was awarded the 2025 Canadian Folk Music Award for ‘Contemporary Canadian Folk Singer of the Year’. Back at home in Saskatchewan he’s twice been named 'Roots-Folk Artist of the Year'.

Straker released his ninth recording “Great Big Sky” in 2024 – steeped with themes of the Canadian prairies. AmericanaUK praised it saying “With emotional and sonic depth, this is an album we’d thoroughly recommend”. Some additional unexpected praise came in the form of royal recognition from His Majesty King Charles III who was moved by a song on the album after it made its way into Buckingham Palace. The King’s message to Straker made the national news.

Performances of the new recording have taken Jeffery to listeners across Canada (including shows inside prairie grain elevators!) and he was also chosen to represent the nation in a week-long residency performing in Osaka Japan at Expo 2025.

Wherever he performs his audience connections are stand-out and CBC Radio has said: “He has a way of drawing us into his world and making us feel like we’re an old friend he’s ready to catch up with”.
