Through the long night…
At midwinter we celebrate the return of the light. We live through the shortest day of the year, and through the longest night.
This Midwinter Gathering is all about light and darkness. We pass through the darkest depths of our own lives. We shed light in the deepest crevices of our soul. Where the embers of our fire lie dormant, ready to light up again.
Where lies your passion? Which deep fear holds it down? Are you ready to travel with us through the long night, to start a fresh new year filled with resolve to fulfill your longing, to experience brotherhood where our deepest wishes touch our deepest fear?
Firemakers will guide you through a journey deep inside. Challenge your brothers and be challenged. To be who you are deep inside. To not hide away, but to shine and be shone upon.
Join us through the long night.
