Foam Lake was formed as a United Church charge in 1925, part of Yorkton Presbytery and consisting of preaching points at Foam Lake, Ashdown, Kelvin Grove, Malby, and Lakeview. Tuffnell was added, ca.1926. By 1932, only Kelvingrove, Lake Side, Tuffnell and Foam Lake remained. As of 1951, the charge was made up of Foam Lake, Bertdale, Mt. Hecla, Tuffnell, and Kelvin Grove. By 1962, Foam Lake Pastoral Charge contained only Foam Lake and Leslie, and it was eventually renamed Foam Lake - Leslie Pastoral Charge. The point at Leslie closed June 30, 2006.
