“Fire is love…and connection…and exchange.”– Grandfather Fire
Twenty years ago, in 2004, the first Sacred Fire Firekeeper was initiated. Since that time we have experienced growth, transformation, learning, and most of all, the gift of connecting around a sacred fire. Many lives have been enriched by this simple, yet profound act of gathering together, giving gratitude in the form of sacred offerings, connecting to our common hearts, and witnessing the transformative effect of fire in our lives. Sacred Fire now has over 50 initiated Firekeepers across 7 countries, leading monthly fire ceremonies for over 3,000 people in their shared communities.
We have benefited from the Sacred Fire Lifeways Programs, which continue to inspire and guide individuals, families and communities to recover ways of living that are aligned with the natural world and the pattern of the human lifecycle.
Through special audiences with Grandfather Fire, we continue to receive the gift of His wise guidance in how to live fruitful lives and to feel our connection with all of life.
Sacred Fire is warmly inviting you to celebrate what was ignited 20 years ago and continues to burn!
Immerse yourself into a weekend of community, ceremony, and connection!

Grandfather Fire—Traditional cultures throughout the Americas have long known Fire to be a wise and loving presence. Many Aboriginal and First Nations peoples call the Spirit of Fire Grandfather. During Fire Speaks audiences, traditional healer Don David Wiley lends his body so the Spirit of Fire can answer questions from those who come to hear His stories and wisdom. Spending time with Grandfather Fire and his teachings about living life from Heart has helped thousands find clarity and courage to meet life’s challenges in a new way. Grandfather Fire is wise, funny, provoking, and profoundly insightful. Spending an evening with Him is a unique opportunity to ask your most pressing questions about life’s mysteries and deepen your connection with the sacred spirits of the natural world.
