Still evolving!
The tagline for our 65th anniversary continues to apply: West Hill is still evolving. We have stretched the boundaries of Christianity and permeated those of secular community. In doing so, we've created something entirely new - not just because we could, but because the world needs what we are doing.
We believe our work is so important that we are driven to make it as accessible as we can. West West Hill developed as a kind of Dinner Church (without the divisive religious beliefs) on the other side of Toronto from our main building which is in Scarborough. We're now planning to launch a community in the centre of the city, something in which many have expressed interest.
The Oasis Network
Our affiliation with the Oasis Network will streamline the process. With the experience of creating successful communities from scratch, the Oasis Network has much to offer. With the stability of a long history, West Hill is the perfect foundation.
What we need to do to make a Toronto Oasis Secular Community a reality is build a leadership team. That team will be composed of interested people who know the importance of community and who live in Toronto's core. Like all Oasis communities, they will take the concept of secular community and develop it in a way that meets the needs of their own community, with its own style and personality. They will build on but not being limited by the experiences that we've had at West Hill and that Oasis communities have had across the United States.
Oasis communities are collaborative and autonomous. There is no template that must be followed. Beyond accepting the five core principles of the Oasis Network and West Hill's values-inspired VisionWorks, the sky is the limit.
Coming together in community, being accepted and inspired no matter what you do or don't believe, is what West Hill participants experience. It's what Oasis community members experience, too. You can help create a community that does that same thing. We are confident that, as part of this leadership team, creating the Toronto Oasis Secular Community will be one of the pivotal and most inspiring periods in your life.
The evolution of West Hill as a community that gathers together beyond the beliefs that divide has been an inspiring journey. It will continue to be.
