Fall 2025 Gathering: September 12th - 14th

Gathering Theme:

Tending the Fire Within

Tending the Fire Within speaks to the sacred responsibility each man carries to nurture and maintain his inner flame—that essential spark of purpose, passion, and authentic self that burns brightly when cared for.

 

Just as our ancestors gathered around fires for warmth, protection, and community, regularly returning to our own inner hearth feeds it with intention, reflection, and meaningful action. This fire represents our deepest values, our creative energy, our capacity for love and leadership, and our connection to something greater than ourselves.

 

Tending our inner fire takes the same patience and skill as maintaining any flame: knowing when to fuel it with new experiences and challenges, when to provide oxygen through rest and contemplation, and when to clear away the ash of old patterns that no longer serve us. As men, when we tend this inner fire faithfully, we become beacons of strength and wisdom for our families, friends, communities, and the world around us.

"The desire to know our own soul,

Our Weekend Gatherings

Established in 1992, COMEGA offers two weekend gatherings a year.  Through various rituals, workshops, and activities, both in small and large groups, we create an open, trusting, and non-competitive environment; an environment where men can takes risks, learn to share with one another – their life experiences, examine their strengths, limitations, dreams and hopes, and to express their talents.  Men are provided the opportunity to explore who they are, what it means to be masculine, and to experience deeper parts of themselves.

We create an environment that invites trust and welcomes and respects differences.  All men are welcome at our gatherings. 

Our Mission

To co-create an intergenerational and diverse community of men dedicated to developing healthier masculinity.
