Regina St. John's Pastoral Charge was formed around 1954, part of Regina Presbytery and containing the new St. John's United Church, built at McTavish Street and Fourth Avenue, Regina. The decision to have a new building had resulted from a presbytery Church Extension Committee survey (ca.1951) that determined the district of the city required facilities not available at the existing Sixth Street United Church. The first service in the new St. John's United Church was held November 14, 1954. The pastoral charge closed June 30, 1999.

In 1951, Knox United Church amalgamated with Metropolitan United Church, to become Knox-Metropolitan United Church (and Pastoral Charge), located on the site of the former Metropolitan United Church, at the corner of Victoria Avenue and Lorne Street.
