American Marconi Wireless News - International Interfaith Conference to Convene at U.S. Capitol Under Leadership of Pastor Mark Burns on ALLATRA Platform

International Interfaith Conference "United in Liberty: The Rise of Spiritual Diplomats"

WASHINGTON, D.C. / ACCESS Newswire / September 19, 2025 / Religious leaders, policymakers, scholars, and advocates from around the world will gather on October 28 in the historic Cannon Caucus Room of the U.S. Capitol Complex, Washington, D.C. for the International Interfaith Conference United in Liberty: The Rise of Spiritual Diplomats

The event, held under the leadership of Pastor Mark Burns, Spiritual Diplomat, Spiritual Advisor to President Donald Trump, launches the Universal Grain Conference Series on the ALLATRA platform and is a landmark in the global effort to protect religious freedom, promote unity, and strengthen peace across cultures and faith traditions.

"Faith leaders must go where politics cannot," says Pastor Burns, a globally recognized Christian leader and advocate for religious liberty. He underscores: "We carry no weapons, only wisdom. We do not speak for governments; we speak from the heart of God. This is not about politics, but about people, peace, and the future we share."

A Global Call for Spiritual Diplomats

Inspired by Pastor Burns' example, the conference introduces the role of the Spiritual Diplomats - faith leaders who transcend political divides to bring reconciliation and hope, where traditional diplomacy fails. Spiritual Diplomats are defined by their willingness to engage with both citizens and world leaders to uphold dignity, justice, and religious freedom.

Conference Program

The one-day gathering in the U.S. Capitol Complex will convene an international delegation of pastors, rabbis, imams, priests, legislators, legal scholars, and civil society leaders. Discussions will focus on three central pillars:

• Shared Values Across Faiths - affirming universal principles of human dignity, compassion, and justice.

• Unity for Peace - modeling principled collaboration to overcome division.

• Protecting Religious Freedom - confronting legal, political, and social threats to freedom of belief worldwide.

Two high-level panels will address both the moral responsibilities of religious leaders and urgent global challenges to religious liberty, with case studies and expert perspectives. Proceedings will be recorded and released in at least 10 languages for global distribution.

The Vision Behind the Universal Grain Project

The event inaugurates the Universal Grain Conference Series, an initiative of the international ALLATRA movement. Since 2017, the Universal Grain project, an international, volunteer-driven research initiative of the International Public Movement ALLATRA, has brought together voices from more than 180 countries to study and affirm the universal values that unite humanity. Through large-scale sociological surveys, interviews, films, and international conferences, thousands of volunteers foster cross-cultural dialogue and explore shared life priorities and inner aspirations. Their work demonstrates that, despite cultural or religious differences, our common foundation is stronger than our divisions, affirming a simple truth: we are all human beings living together in one shared home - Earth.
