History
Foxdale Pastoral Charge was formed around 1926, as an aid-receiving United Church charge, part of Prince Albert Presbytery. By 1932, the charge included Foxdale, Canwood, Silver Cliff and Sturgeon River points, and was listed as Canwood-Foxdale Pastoral Charge. As of 1936, the name had shifted to Canwood Pastoral Charge and it consisted of just Canwood, Polwarth and Silver Cliff. Marchant Grove was added and Silver Cliff removed by 1940. Sometime between 1946 and 1951, the points moved into Shellbrook Pastoral Charge.
Around 1972, Canwood moved from Shellbrook Pastoral Charge (which became Shellbrook-Leask) to Big River Pastoral Charge, which was re-named Big River - Canwood Pastoral Charge. Canwood's Trinity United Church closed March 30 2010, leaving just Big River's First United Church and the charge would return to the name Big River Pastoral Charge.
