Administrative history

Kamsack Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, containing Westminster United Church (Kamsack). Around 1965, the Togo preaching point was added and the charge was later re-named Kamsack-Togo Pastoral Charge. The preaching place at Togo closed June 30, 2005.

Name of creator

(ca.1926–1965?)

Administrative history

Togo Pastoral Charge was created ca.1926, as a new self-sustaining United Church field in Kamsack Presbytery, with appointments at Runnymeade, Myler, Alva, and Togo. By the 1950s, the charge had been re-named Togo-Makaraoff Pastoral Charge, including points at Grand Narrows, Poplar Point, Makaroff, and Togo. Around 1965, the Togo point joined Kamsack Pastoral Charge, which was later re-named Kamsack-Togo Pastoral Charge. The preaching point at Togo was closed June 30, 2005.

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 archives around 2013 and earlier.
