I've been to Ahmadiyya Muslims Conventions they are great way to listen to the current and reformed Islamic thought. Also to meet up with relatives, and friends and make new ones.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Conventions offer listeners the most morden and moderate version of Islam as it is supposed to be. I have attended many of their conventions and have always felt a deep feeling of bortherhood and love of humanity. I would recommend it to anynone, and they know how to take care of their guests for accomodations and meals as well.
