Administrative history

Brora Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Regina Presbytery and consisting of Brora, Tregarva and Rose Plain appointments. Balgonie joined the charge around 1965 and both Brora and Balgonie points moved to Regina St. Aidan's Pastoral Charge by 1970. Brora Pastoral Charge was re-established around 1973, with ministry supplied from Regina Rosemont.

The charge was officially closed on June 28, 2015.

Custodial history

Original provenance for many of the records in the fonds is unclear. Initial items were transferred to the archives between 1925 and 1986. Additions were received by Saskatchewan Conference around 2003 and 2018.

Scope and content

The fonds consists of textual materials generated by the Brora Pastoral Charge, including predecessors and constituent churches – their boards, committees and related bodies, and local women’s units.

Contents include: minutes of church boards, stewards, session, and annual congregational meetings; records from local United Church Women (U.C.W.) groups; some membership, property, and financial records; church registers documenting baptisms and marriages in Brora, Tregarva, Rose Plain and nearby area(s).

Arrangement

Original order for many of these records is unclear. Items under A.381.XV.A and XV.B were arranged and listed as local church records sometime before 1990, with further batches added in 2004 and 2018. The fonds was created in 2023, based on historical relationships between the charges, records previously listed and any new accruals.
