This series contains records related to the Church property on the corner of Beaver Hall Hill and la Gauchetière street. It includes a handwritten ledger of costs associated with the construction of the second church building on the property from 1858, as well as photocopies of "Montreal then and Now" articles, about the church building, from the Montréal Gazette written in the 1980s.

This sub-series contains the calendars created by the Church between 1905 and 1953. Although the earliest calendar exists from 1905, calendars exist on a consistent basis from 1909 to 1925 and then from 1927 to 1953. The pre-1921 calendars tend to have more detailed overview of the activities of the Church, including services, sermons, mariages, baptisms, deaths and other meetings, while the calendars dating after that are more akin to orders of service (see the orders of service series, linked below in related materials, for more details).

Series consists of minutes books and several file folders detailing the events of meetings and Church goings on from June 1842 to February 2023. The volumes are labelled alphabetically and with their dates up to L, after which point they are simply labelled with their dates or not at all. The volumes are organized in chronological order, both in their boxes and internally, with some variation on the latter. The dates covered in each volume, with notes on their internal arrangement, are noted in an Arrangement note.

The minute books also contain annual reports post-2018. See the Annual reports series (linked in related materials) for more information.
