Our Story

In 2014 A group of regular guys completed the Christ Renews His Parish retreat at their local church. They left  the weekend with a deep longing to keep the Fire of the Holy Spirit burning in their lives.

The retreat weekend so ignited their faith, they felt called to inspire others in a similar way.

They invited 50 of their "CHRP" brothers to Prairie Star ranch for an overnight "retreat" to simply have some fun, share a few snacks and enjoy good conversation around the campfire.

The attendees seemed to really enjoy it so a few of the guys continued meeting for coffee once per week to plan the next one.

F.I.R.E. has since occurred every February since with attendance by men from over 100 parishes and 5 states. Click here to see prior retreats.  F.I.R.E. is a completely volunteer-led organization. Click here to learn how to volunteer.
