“The beacon of Gondor is lit!”
In our history and our culture, lighting a beacon was a call for aid. In England, the beacons still stand, lit during times of honor and memorial. They’ve become centers of gathering, places that a community come together to celebrate, to remember, and to strengthen their bond.
Beacon is our modern take, a monthly meetup for men in the Holland area who want a place to connect. The goal is to gather on the third Sunday of each month around this beacon: that honor and hope and possibility are the bonds of good men. Think of it as a chance to check in, swap stories, talk about books, hobbies, local happenings, vent about work, or just sit and listen. There’s no agenda, no pitch, no pressure.
Sometimes we’ll offer a loose theme to kick things off, but mostly we let the discussion take its own path. It’s a space to meet other men, share ideas, and remind ourselves that showing up, whatever that might look like, is its own kind of heroism.
