History

Alsask Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Kindersley Presbytery and containing preaching points at Alsask, Lloyd George, Sibbald (Alberta), and Highland Park (Alberta). By the 1930s, Lloyd George was no longer listed in the charge and, ca.1936, Mantario and Craiglands were added (the latter only briefly). As of 1951, Alsask was part of Alsask-Flaxcombe Pastoral Charge, alongside preaching points at Flaxcombe, Hoosier, and Marengo. (Note: Mantario had moved to Eatonia Pastoral Charge by this point.) The two charges had split and been re-established sometime in the mid-1950s. By 1962, Alsask and Flaxcombe were both part of Marengo Pastoral Charge.

On July 1, 2012, Alsask Pastoral Charge was re-established, from what had been Marengo Pastoral Charge. It was dissolved (again), January 1, 2018.
