• Statement Approved by Chestnut Hill Friends Meeting on 20 January, 2013: This statement was prepared and approved by our Meeting at its January 2013 meeting for worship with attention to business. We wrote it in response to events at the construction site for our new meetinghouse in December 2012, and to the ensuing press coverage and public discussion of the events. Our purpose is to describe in our own words background events and processes that are essential to a fuller understanding of what took place.
