Administrative history
Greenwood Pastoral Charge began as the result of Presbyterian and Methodist activity. The Kettle River Mission had been opened in 1890 and reopened in 1893 by the Presbyterian Church; by 1896, mission stations had been opened up at both Greenwood and Midway. By 1920, Greenwood and Midway had been combined into one field. The congregation at Greenwood was called St. Columba Presbyterian Church and continued as the central point in the Greenwood field. The Methodists opened work in Greenwood in 1899, which was variously combined with activity carried on at nearby Phoenix. In 1925, the local Methodist and Presbyterian bodies entered church union without a vote, at which point the combined congregation at Greenwood became St. Columba United Church. Since union, Greenwood Pastoral Charge has consisted of various congregations and preaching points, including Midway, Kettle Valley, Beaverdell, Bridesville, Rock Creek and others. Due to declining membership, the congregation disbanded as of January 1, 2017.
