- We are here for the purpose of providing a place of safety, of
non-judgmental support, and a sanctuary for ourselves as men.
- We come to explore and share the process of being our physical,
psychological, emotional and spiritual selves with other men.
This sharing is our reason for meeting.
- In order to provide for this sanctuary, confidentiality is
necessary.
- It is our intention to communicate authentically, deal with our
difficult issues, affirm our diversity, and bridge our
differences with honesty & integrity.
- We relate with compassionate respect for ourselves as well as
others.
- We accept the sole responsibility for who we are, what we do,
and how we feel, in this way we are empowered.
- Although some here may have been in therapy and/or recovery
groups, let it be clearly stated that this is not one of those
meetings.
- We are not here to fix, advise or convert. We do not have the
answers for others nor do we offer suggestions.
- It is our belief that healing and growth occur within a
compassionate, supportive and accepting environment.
- Grant each man his dignity, his sovereignty, his responsibility,
and the privilege to be who he is and who WE become by dealing
with our pain and joy, our failures and triumphs that are the
Soul's journey.
- Do not undermine this foundation of safety with the need to make
life less real, less painful.
- We speak to the group using "I" statements, regarding our own
truth from personal and present experiences.
- We listen with full attention and give priority to each speaker.
This honors the Truth that binds our lives together, thus
creating the human connection that is a Sacred Community.
There
are no fees.
A donation of $10 is suggested for the room.
Don't let that keep you from attending.
All Men are welcomed!
This is why we are here!
