This was the second meeting this year for con- cerned Christians in Huron County, the first one being on April 12, 1981, which was called by interested and con- cerned pastors to test the feasibility of a counseling service. A proposal was made to four ministerials of Huron County who appointed both pastors and laymen to a steering committee. The meeting held Tues- day, October 6 was attended by 35 concerned residents of Huron. It was overwhelm- ingly decided that there is a definite need for this type of counseling in this area. The proposed centre is to be situated in the Clinton area which would give ac- cess to people from the en- tire county as Clinton is located in the central area of Huron. There would be a staff consisting of a profes- sional counselor, secretary - receptionist backed by a pro- fessional advisory board and a board of directors. It has not yet been decided when this service will be available to the public, however, the committee behind the Huron County Christian Counseling . Ser- vices Association hopes it would be functional .within the next year.
