History

Griffin Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Arcola Presbytery, with appointments at Griffin, Innis and Froude. Additional preaching point White Rock was added between 1926 and 1932. By 1954, ministry was supplied by Creelman and sometime before 1958, it amalgamated with Creelman to form Creelman-Griffin Pastoral Charge. The Griffin United Church preaching point officially closed April 30, 1995.
