Next August all roads lead to the beautiful FRIENDS CENTER in PHILADELPHIA, USA
Entrance of the Friends Center
For ITC 2017, from August 10 until August 13 in Philadelphia the theme is:
A Nucleus of Universal Brotherhood
– World’s Healing Force –
Bringing harmony to a divided humanity
by studying and working together
Note! This year the start and end time will differ from previous years. On Thursday August 10, the conference starts at 10:00 AM and the closure the conference is on Saturday August 12 in the evening.
The special Annual Membership Meeting all participants really should attend, will take place on Sunday, August 13 in the morning.
No doubt that this forthcoming conference will be just as energetic, uplifting and inspiring as the previous ones.
Theosophists aware of the challenges they face, are making steps forward indeed. In the true spirit of brotherhood, they can do so through sharing, collaboration, and by having open minds.
Although the understanding of, or the approach to Theosophical teachings may differ, it is encouraging to see that, when we as Theosophists finally sit together at one table there is so much we have in common.
We have come to see that our diversity will work for, instead of against us.
During the annual gatherings of ITC, those who consider themselves Theosophists have the unique opportunity to learn from each other, through joint studies, various activities and a never-ending brotherly dialogue.
