History

Hoosier Pastoral Charge was formed as new United Church charge in 1925, part of Kindersley Presbytery and consisting of Marengo and Hoosier preaching points, as well as Greene (as of 1926). Sometime before 1932, Marengo and Hoosier separated, the former moving into Flaxcombe Pastoral Charge (alongside Pinkham) and the latter into Loverna Pastoral Charge (alongside Greene). By 1951, Marengo and Hoosier were part of Alsask-Flaxcombe Pastoral Charge but Marengo Pastoral Charge was re-established by 1959. As of 1962, Alsask and Flaxcombe were listed as preaching points for the charge, as was Hoosier (moved from Loverna Pastoral Charge), around 1963.

Around 1976, Marengo, Alsask and Flaxcombe (from Marengo PC) combined with Eatonia and Mantario (from Eatonia PC) to form Prairie Neighbours Pastoral Charge. The new charge lasted until January 1, 1983, when Marengo Pastoral Charge was re-established (alongside Eatonia-Mantario). Loverna was eventually listed in the charge and the point at Flaxcombe was closed in February 1988. In 2012, Marengo Pastoral Charge was dissolved, with Alsask and Loverna forming separate pastoral charges.
