120 years ago leaders from religions east and west, came together at the 1893 World’s Parliament of Religions with a vision for a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world. And the Interfaith Movement was birthed.
It took another 100 years to hold the second Parliament; that event broke down barriers, included groups formerly left out, and attendees committed to work towards a world without wars, hate, and discrimination by signing a pioneering Global Ethic.
Please join us in Chicago November 16 as we celebrate the 120th and 20th Anniversary of PWR with a Benefit Dinner and Special Parliament Program!
