1925–ca.1965, 1982?–2000

Balgonie Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Regina Presbytery, with appointments at Balgonie, Newton and Pilot Butte. By 1936, the charge consisted of Balgonie and Newton and, between 1940 and 1946, Pasqua Reserve was also added. As of 1962, Balgonie and Pilot Butte were the only listed preaching points and around 1965, Pilot Butte formed its own separate charge, served from Regina St. James, while Balgonie was served from Brora, which it joined soon after.

Balgonie and Pilot Butte together formed New Beginnings Pastoral Charge, around 1982. On January 1, 1994, the charge divided again into Balgonie and Pilot Butte Pastoral Charges. Balgonie Pastoral Charge amalgamated with McLean Bethel Pastoral Charge, June 30, 2000, to form Balgonie-McLean Pastoral Charge.

Local church congregations in the United Church are organized into pastoral charges, each run by a governing body, such as a Council or Board. Charges can often include more than one local church or preaching place congregation under the leadership of a minister.
