Drinkwater Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, as part of Moose Jaw Presbytery. Initially, the charge included preaching point at Drinkwater but by 1951 Belle Plaine was added and ca. 1962 Stoney Beach. The charge was later re-named Drinkwater - Stoney Beach Pastoral Charge. Around 1968, Drinkwater, Pense, Stoney Beach, Grand Coulee, Sherwood, and Richardson joined together to form the new Pense - Grand Coulee Pastoral Charge.

After the joint-charge was dissolved, Drinkwater joined with Pense to become Pense-Drinkwater Pastoral Charge, with preaching points at St. Andrew's (Pense) and Drinkwater. In 1994, Grand Coulee and Pense-Drinkwater Pastoral Charges amalgamated, as Plainsview Pastoral Charge. The points at Pense and Drinkwater both formally closed on June 30, 1998.
