West Hill has made a commitment to include nut-free vegan and vegetarian options at West Hill sponsored events. One way we can help make this easier is to provide opportunities for people to become familiar with recipes that support this commitment. We are very pleased that Rob Burridge has agreed to share some of his favourite recipes in a new section of our website.

The first two recipes are up. Check out:

The 2009 Annual Report is now available on line. Being conscious of our environment and making wise use of our resources there will not be a distribution of printed reports. There will be a limited number of printed versions available upon request from the office. So relax, read all the interesting reports highlighting the activities of the past year. Bring any comments or questions to the Congregational Meeting on Tuesday, June 22.


There was some good initial discussion yesterday around unpacking the statement "Everything happens for a reason" and its implications.  Anything to add?  What does that statement mean to you?  Is it positive? Does it give you hope? Or does it infuriate you?
