Charlotte Unity Conference: Building Vibrant Communities

Charlotte will host one of an unprecedented series of global conferences exploring the inherent oneness of humanity and a universal appeal to work for the betterment of the world. Admission is FREE. Children’s program and transportation provided. The conference is designed to bring together the well-wishers of humanity to consult about how they can channel their energies and desire to promote unity and serve their fellow citizens into addressing the needs of their societies. The themes covered in the gathering are peace, the essential oneness of humanity, and selfless service to society, among others.

Saturday, April 26th 10am-5pm and Sunday, April 27th 10am-4pm at Queens University; 1900 Selwyn Ave. Charlotte, NC in Ketner Auditorium in the Sykes Building. Register @ bit.ly/cltglobalconference2025

We will explore the work of raising vibrant communities committed to the betterment of the world - free from prejudice and paternalism; combine worship and service to contribute to the spiritual and material well-being of every individual; create opportunities to participate in the discourses of society and social action; and build capacity for selfless service.

Youth have a profound role to play in the regeneration of the planet and humanity. The conference will provide a platform for discussion, art, service and friendship with peers who share the same desire for a livable, hopeful future. A major theme at the all the global conferences is the important role that youth and children can play in contributing to social transformation. A youth from a conference in Germany said: “This was a meeting that rekindled our hope for humanity and joy for service. So much can be achieved when there is unity.” Register: bit.ly/cltunityconference_youth2025

Children’s Conference

Far from mere childcare, children from ages 5-10 participate in their own conference with consultations on the spiritual principles underlying building vibrant communities. Through stories, art, songs and their own ideas about what will make the world a better place, children gain the capacity to think and speak for themselves.
