History

Avonlea Pastoral Charge was formed as a new self-sustaining United Church charge in 1925, part of Moose Jaw Presbytery and with appointments at Avonlea and Hearne. By 1940, Sinclair Hill had also been added to the charge. As of 1951, the charge consisted of Avonlea, Crystal Hill and Hearne. Around 1971, the charge amalgamated with Briercrest Pastoral Charge, to form Avonlea-Briercrest Pastoral Charge (later Avonlea - Blue Hill Pastoral Charge), including points at Blue Hill and Hearne.
