Zurich Citizens News, 1976-12-01, Page 23Presbytery sets budget
Huron -Perth Presbytery of
the United Church set its
budget figure at $31,064 for
1977. Rev. Donald Beck, Hen-
sall, head of the finance com-
mittee, presented the financial
breakdown of the eight divis-
ions and committees at a meet-
ing in Ontario Street United
Church, Clinton, last week.
The 1977 total represents an
increase of approximately
$4,000. The new budget works
out to $1.60 per resident mem-
ber, an increase of 35CC. It
was stated that there were
19,283 names on the roll, a
decrease of some 360 members
over last year.
Largest recipients of funds
were Camps Bimini and Mene-
setung of $9,500. The Division
of Communication's budget was
the largest at $5,285. Singtime
from CKNX-TV and the new
Resource Centre at Mitchell
come under this arm of Pres-
bytery.
Under a new format commit-
tee meetings were discontinued
during presbytery to allow for a
more creative and interest-
ing session.;, Committees met
prior to presbytery.
Highlight of the all -day
session was a special presenta-
tion of the Division of Mission
by Revs. Barry Robinson,
Thames Road, Bruce Guy,
'Dashwood and Glen Wright,
Exeter. A role-playing situation
portrayed the problems that
arise in the church when people
with different approaches
attempt to share their positions.
Draft budget
prepared
Huron County Engineer J. W.
Britnell is presently preparing a
draft budget for 1977 consisting of
the normal maintenance items
plus the road and bridge con-
struction items as approved by
County Council in their long
range construction plan.
The draft is expected to be
ready for the December session
of County Council.
According to Mr. Britnell the
recent early snow storms have
caused a strain on the 1976 budget
but his department still forecasts
that all projects can be com-
pleted within the original budget
and finish with a small surplus.
A six per cent wage increase,
across the board, was approved
for employees of the County
Roads Department.

The presentation depicted a
confrontation between the tradi-
tionalist who was unwilling to
explore and a person who had
had a renewal experience. The
second part of the role-playing
illustrated two people with
different ideas, both of whom
are interested in the other's
position.
Rev. Bruce Pierce, Crediton
led a vocational presentation in
which several clergymen told
of their experience leading to
the ministry. The purpose was
to help clergy and laity be more
perceptive in their encourage-
ment to others to enter the full-
time work of the church.
The Mission and Service
committee reported that 1975
givings to the local fund was
861.75 per member in the
presbytery while Mission and
Service received $15.75. The
committee urged a more equal
committment.
Presbytery approved the
following pastoral changes;
Rev. James Reddoch, Bayfield,
postponment of retirement;
Rev, John Stinson transfer from
Toronto Conference to List-
owel; Rev. Harold Dobson,
Dungannon -Nile, change in
pastoral relations in June 1977
and a call to Rev. Wm. J.
Moore to St. Marys from the
Manitoba Conference as of
July 1977.
