This August Janel and Ryan attended The Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago, IL. It was a great time of seeing how the world practices a wide variety of religious experiences. Set on the shores of Lake Michigan, it was a time of learning, reflection, and experience.
The Parliament of the World's Religions describes itself as the world’s premier interfaith convening of civic, spiritual and grassroots changemakers. It is an international nonprofit, non-governmental organization affiliated with the United Nations Department of Public Information.
Its origins are rooted in the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, where the first convening of the World Parliament of Religions created a global platform for east-west religious engagement.
In total, over 7,000 people attended the parliament, representing 212 spiritual traditions and 95 countries.
