Pathways to Unity Summit

Pathways to Unity Summit June 7, 2025 | Pittsburgh, PA

This day-long gathering is open to all who are committed to fostering unity, justice, and peace in our communities. Our collective efforts are aimed at building a more harmonious and hopeful future for the Pittsburgh region and the surrounding communities of Southwestern Pennsylvania.

Grounded in the unifying teachings of Bahá’u’lláh, the prophet-founder of the Baha’i Faith, we will explore the profound vision that all humanity is one family—“the fruit of one tree and the leaves of one branch”—and that each individual has a vital role in carrying forward an ever-advancing civilization.

Together, we will reflect on the following:

• What this vision of unity and shared purpose might look like in our local communities,

• the qualities and capacities we must cultivate to realize it,

• and the concrete steps we can take—across lines of faith, background, and experience—to walk this path in unity.

The Summit will be a joyful and inclusive experience, enriched by music, the arts, devotional reflections, and engaging conversations that speak to both the heart and the mind. Children and youth are warmly welcomed and will have their own meaningful programming led by state-cleared volunteers.

Join us for this day of thoughtful dialogue, spiritual upliftment, and community connection. Please feel free to extend this invitation to others within your community who may also be interested in participating.
