Living Ubuntu: Healing Ourselves, Healing the World!
with
Antoinette Rootsdawtah
February 3, 2026
4 pm HST / 6pm PDT / 9 pm EDT
✨Explore spiritual healing through Ubuntu, Urantia Revelation, interfaith wisdom, and collective care—guided by lived experience and inner knowing!


Join us, Tuesday, February 3rd for a powerful interfaith and wellness presentation exploring spirituality, healing, and collective responsibility through the living philosophy of Ubuntu — I Am Because We Are.
​
In this 90-minute heart-centered session, Antoinette Rootsdawtah weaves together insights from the Urantia Revelation, interfaith ministry, and lived experience to illuminate wellness as a relational, spiritually guided, and communal process. The presentation includes 60–75 minutes of guided teaching followed by 15–20 minutes of interactive Q&A, creating space for reflection, dialogue, and shared insight.
​
Antoinette begins by sharing her spiritual journey—shaped by music, service, and a deepening understanding of God as both Father and Mother. Drawing from her Urantia background, she introduces the Creative Mother Spirit as a nurturing, intuitive, and life-sustaining presence that ministers to mind, body, and soul across all cultures and faith traditions. This perspective offers a unifying spiritual language that transcends doctrine while honoring personal experience and inner guidance.
​
The session also reflects on Antoinette’s work with Stand UP For Justice and global interfaith initiatives, illustrating how spiritual maturity, compassion, and cooperative action can transform social pain into pathways for collective and planetary healing. Wellness is explored not only as personal balance, but as right relationship—with one another and with the whole.
​
A deeply personal portion of the talk addresses Antoinette’s health diagnosis and healing journey. Shared as testimony rather than prescription, she reflects on how stillness, discernment, faith-supported decision-making, and attunement to the Mother Spirit guided her through uncertainty and restoration.
Throughout the presentation, the wisdom of Ubuntu is interwoven with Urantia teachings, revealing healing as something we do together, guided by divine care and mutual responsibility. Participants are invited to reflect on their own spiritual grounding, resilience, and role in fostering personal and collective well-being.

The Unity and Oneness of Near-Death and Related Experiences: African American Spiritual Journeys



Near-Death Experiences (NDEs) change the worldview of the survivors, often shifting their consciousness to transcend individual identity, experiencing a profound sense of belonging, unity, interconnectedness, and a feeling of oneness with the universe or a higher power. 

While on the other side of the veil, NDErs often meet loved ones and spirit guides, use telepathy to communicate, instantly know many truths, experience healings, and become one with "The Universal Light" that includes everyone, all of nature, and everything there is.

The captivating aftereffects of NDEs include heightened intuition, expanded mediumship and psychic abilities, child-like wonder, enhanced empathy, a deeper sense of unity with others, and a strong desire to alleviate suffering in the world. Ultimately, many NDErs embark on a path of spiritual growth and commit themselves to some level of service to humanity.

Join us Sunday, February 22nd, as we celebrate Black History Month and the spiritual journeys of dynamic Black Americans and others in the African Diaspora. Today’s speakers will cover a range of topics, including glimpses of the future, deep forgiveness, miraculous physical healings, spontaneous mediumship, and revelations from guides and angels. They will also share their endeavors to promote healing within their communities and throughout the world.
