History
Speers Pastoral Charge was formed as a United Church charge in 1925, part of Battleford Presbytery and containing preaching points at Speers, Keystone, Keatley and Wangarren [Wanganui?]. By 1932, listed points were Speers, Hafford, Keatley, and Keystone. With the addition of Richard (between 1932 and 1936), the name changed to Speers-Richard Pastoral Charge. As of 1940, only Speers, Richard, Bromley, Hafford and Keatley were listed in the charge. Around 1967, the charge combined with Maymont and Borden-Radisson Pastoral Charges to form the shared ministry Maymont Larger Parish. After the shared ministry was dissolved, in 2005, Speers Pastoral Charge was re-established.
