Who hosts community fires?
Sacred Fires are hosted by Firekeepers who are trained, initiated, and receive continuing education in the time-honored principles of “Fire Work”—the capacity to work with Fire’s powers of illumination and transformation to bring forth personal and community growth and healing.
What are community fires about?
Community Fires expand and enrich our relationships through the connective and transformative power of Fire. Our world is diverse and Community Fires welcome all peoples, races, genders, ages and beliefs.
Each fire is different, reflecting the night’s mix of personalities, time of year, events happening in the world and what arises around the flames. Typically we share what’s going on in our lives, stories, music, drumming, and laughter—as well as more personal reflections, troubles and conflicts.
Whether a fire is quiet and contemplative, emotional and challenging, or boistrous and spirited, it offers a safe space for spontaneity, inspiration, life challenges, fresh perspectives and opportunities for personal and group transformation.
We carry the benefits we receive back to our homes, our communities, and the world.
When and where do they happen?
Community Fires, open to everyone, are scheduled monthly. Some communities also offer women’s and men’s fires.
Currently Community Fires are available in the United States, Mexico, Columbia, Canada, Ireland, England, Wales, Scotland, Greece and Australia.
Online Fire Circles are available in 10 different time zones and 2 languages for people who cannot travel to a Community Fire hearth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to register in advance to attend a live, in-person Community Fire? Typically you do not need to register or RSVP to attend a local community fire in person. Find your closest fire “hearth” on our interactive map, then contact the Firekeeper directly to receive event information. During Covid, however, in-person attendance may be limited and so registering ahead would be required.
Do I have to register in advance to attend an Online Fire Circle? Certain Firekeepers are hosting Online Fire Circles so people from all over the world can attend. You can download the Online Fire Circle list by downloading the Fire Starter Kit, which includes it. Find the Online Fire Circle in your time zone and then email the Firekeeper who hosts the online fire to get more information. For Online Fire Circles on Zoom, registering is required to participate. Contact the Firekeeper for the fire you want to attend, and they will be able to answer your questions.
These fire sound very participatory. Do I have to talk or share? Can I simply attend and observe and see if this is for me? You are welcome to “come as you are,” and if that means you prefer not to share in the group, that’s fine because it’s optional. Most fires begin with people introducing themselves, usually with a first name, where you’re from and perhaps how you learned about the fire event. This is true for in-person fires as well as our Online Fire Circles. Though this might make you nervous, we ask that you do introduce yourself at the beginning. This helps build trust with the circle and confidence with the speakers. Communicating about your concerns ahead of time with your Firekeeper is a good way to get started.
If I sign up to attend a local or online fire, can I bring someone with me? Yes, always! You’re encouraged to bring friends, family and co-workers. Everyone is welcome.
Do I need to officially become a member of Sacred Fire before I can attend a Community Fire? As an organization, Sacred Fire does not officially have “membership.” There are no applications to fill out or dues to pay. People are welcome to attend, and if they enjoy the fire they typically give their Firekeeper their contact information so they can receive future announcements about upcoming fires. Sacred Fire does send out periodic emails like the Ignite! eZine and event announcements like Fire Speaks events and LifeWays events. Your Firekeeper can connect you with the wider community mailing list.
