Ayahausca Community Fellowship
About Us;
"Pursuant to a "free and responsible search for truth and meaning,"
"1.3 — Ayahuasca Community Fellowship is a non-profit, non-partisan, non-denominational fellowship or church for ceremonial practice of ancestral, cultural, and spiritual Master Plant Teacher traditions.
Specifically inspired by “unitarian universalism,” ACF is a syncretic doctrine religious organization. We purposely serve Ayahuasca in Ceremony, as a Master Plant Teacher for awakening purgative processes of spiritual ascension, a rebirth or renewal, a truly spiritual and sacred rite of passage.
Ayahuasca Ceremony; is communion or sacrament with a spiritually cathartic entheogenic ancestral tea from Amazonian Basin indigenous people, to exclusively adult members attending services in our global Ayahuasca Community Fellowship."
