Living Ubuntu: Healing Ourselves, Healing the World with Antoinette Rootsdawtah
Ā·OnlineOnlineš¦āš„Explore spiritual healing through Ubuntu, Urantia Revelation, interfaith wisdom, and collective careāguided 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 ā 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 60ā75 minutes of guided teaching followed by 15ā20 minutes of interactive Q&A, creating space for reflection, dialogue, and shared insight.
Antoinette begins by sharing her spiritual journeyāshaped 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 Antoinetteās 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 relationshipāwith one another and with the whole.
A deeply personal portion of the talk addresses Antoinetteās 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.
