The Trueness Project, a global movement committed to promoting authenticity, truth, and personal growth, is preparing for an unprecedented event on June 28, 2025: the Grand Butterfly Gathering. This event, which will be held in Jackson, Wyoming, and virtually across the world, is designed to bring together individuals from all walks of life to celebrate transformation, peace, and unity on a grand scale.
Dr. M. Teresa Lawrence, the visionary founder and executive director of The Trueness Project, has dedicated her life’s work to empowering individuals to embrace their true selves, challenge societal expectations, and lead with integrity. The Grand Butterfly Gathering, which will take place in Jackson, Wyoming, and through online platforms, aims to be a catalyst for positive global change. Participants are invited to come dressed as butterflies, representing personal transformation and the collective power of change. With a goal to break the record for the largest gathering of people dressed as butterflies, the event serves as a symbol of hope and renewal.
Founded on the principles of truth, belief in oneself, and living authentically, The Trueness Project seeks to create a world where everyone can live without fear of judgment or discrimination. Over the years, the organization has made a significant impact, supporting educational initiatives in Kenya and Nepal, empowering women through leadership development, and fostering global social change through its philanthropic work. Through events like the Grand Butterfly Gathering, The Trueness Project continues to inspire individuals to live with purpose and passion.
The Grand Butterfly Gathering will be a day of reflection and action, combining elements of music, dance, and prayer with a central focus on collective peace and healing. A key feature of the event will be an interdenominational prayer for global peace, bringing together diverse communities in shared reverence for the future. Participants from around the world will be able to join the gathering virtually, creating a sense of unity that transcends geographical borders.
In addition to the core event on June 28, the festivities will begin the evening prior, on June 27, with an exclusive VIP Night. This event will bring together a distinguished group of thought leaders, authors, entrepreneurs, and spiritual guides to share inspiring ideas and ignite meaningful conversations. Among the highlights of the evening will be a celebration of The Trueness Project’s many accomplishments and a special tribute to Dr. M. Teresa Lawrence’s remarkable journey from a Cuban immigrant to an internationally recognized humanitarian. Dr. Lawrence has earned numerous accolades for her dedication to education, justice, and leadership development, including a prestigious honor from the Maasai people of Kenya, who bestowed upon her the title of “Noonkishu.”
For those unable to attend in person, the Grand Butterfly Gathering will also be broadcasted to global satellite locations, allowing individuals in communities around the world to participate in the movement from their own homes. Virtual participants will be invited to join the live event, engaging in prayer, music, and shared reflections on peace and transformation. The event’s virtual format ensures that no one is excluded, regardless of location, and reinforces the core message of global unity.
A deeply symbolic component of the Grand Butterfly Gathering will be the sacred Fire Ceremony, led by the esteemed James Uqualla, an ordained minister, motivational speaker, and spiritual ceremonialist. The ceremony, which will take place at Spring Creek Ranch, will provide a space for participants to engage in spiritual renewal, set intentions for the future, and reflect on the power of transformation. This intimate moment will allow individuals to close the event with a renewed sense of purpose and connection to one another.
To further enhance the experience, The ME Studios from New Jersey will offer a special reward to the first 1,000 adults who register and attend in person. Each individual will receive a free vacation voucher for a 5-day, 6-night stay at a resort in either the Caribbean or Mexico. This gesture is designed to thank attendees for their participation in this transformative event and to offer them an opportunity for further relaxation and rejuvenation.
As part of the ongoing legacy of the Grand Butterfly Gathering, the Mayor of Jackson, Wyoming, has officially declared June 29 as “Butterfly Gathering Day” in recognition of the global impact of the event. This annual occasion will continue to grow, with future gatherings set to bring together people from all corners of the world who are dedicated to creating a peaceful, unified future.
The Grand Butterfly Gathering is more than just an event; it is a call to action for individuals everywhere to stand together, live authentically, and inspire positive change in the world. The Trueness Project invites people from all backgrounds to participate in this monumental moment of unity, transformation, and peace.
