Melbourne, Australia
Thousands of religious leaders from every faith converged on Melbourne, Australia for the 2009 Council for a Parliament of the World's Religions. Paganism was well-represented at the Parliament with a number of delegates (including Circle Ministers Drake Spaeth and Patrick McCollum) and even some Pagan board members. Circle Community members Sylvia and Dave Linton were among the attendees, and filed reports from the Parliament on behalf of Circle.
