Administrative history
Golden Prairie Pastoral Charge was formed as a United Church mission field in 1925, part of Swift Current Presbytery and containing preaching points at Golden Prairie, Kellarville and Clifton. As of 1940, the charge included Golden Prairie, Foch and Richmond appointments. By the early 1970s, the minutes and Year Books identified it as a Pastoral Charge (in Cypress Hills Presbytery), operating without a regular minister. As of 1977, the Charge is no longer listed in Year Books. According to the Official Board minutes from Golden Prairie (reference no. A.785.XV.SA.275), on March 24, 1977, the congregation decided to amalgamate with Maple Creek (alongside Piapot), as of July 1. Future services were planned to take place at Maple Creek United Church.
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, with further accruals in 1991 and 1992.
Scope and content
The fonds consists of textual materials generated by Golden Prairie Pastoral Charge, its predecessors and constituent churches – boards, committees and related bodies.
Contents include: historic rolls; a Visitor’s Book; and Home Mission Record books, containing lists of missionaries, officials and board members, as well as records of baptisms, marriages and burials held at Golden Prairie, Good Hope and Richmond.

Arrangement
Original order for many of these records is unclear. Items under A.381.XV were arranged and listed as local church records sometime before 1990 and those under A.785.XV.SA were added around 1992. The fonds was created in 2021, to include records previously listed and any new accruals.
