Sunday, February 1 - Fun Family Fire Day

🔥 ABOUT THIS GATHERING

Due to the nature of "fire work", our monthly community fires are an adult only space. Yet many of us know families or have children and grandchildren. Everyone benefits when we gather together with people of all ages in purposeful & playful ways.

❤️‍🔥 WHAT IS SACRED FIRE?

In these times of uncertainty and rapid change, it is common to feel increasingly disconnected from ourselves, each other, and the world.

For millennia, fire was the center of community life. The place where people gathered around for warmth, stories, ceremony and connection.

Sacred Fire is a global network of initiated Firekeepers who help people experience the benefits of Fire’s primordial healing presence and guidance in small communities around the world.

People of all walks of life and relgion are welcome. Fire helps us feel and experience our common humanity.
