History

Richardson Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, as part of Regina Presbytery. Initially, the charge included preaching points at Richardson, Estlin and Kronau. (Estlin would later move to Riceton Pastoral Charge, before closing in 1989.) By 1951, Richardson had become part of Grand Coulee Pastoral Charge, alongside points at Grand Coulee and Sherwood. Around 1968, Drinkwater, Pense, Stoney Beach, Grand Coulee, Sherwood, and Richardson joined together to form the new Pense - Grand Coulee Pastoral Charge.

By the 1980s, Richardson Pastoral Charge had been re-established. The charge continued until April 23, 1983, when it was disbanded.
