What We Believe

Our Creator created all life on earth, including all species of cactus, cannabis, fungus, hemp, herbs, flowers, vines, leaves, fruits, roots, barks, and all other plants. We seek divine guidance through our responsible use of these powerful plant medicines and the sacred compounds, constituents, alkaloids, and molecules they contain, which heal our bodies and prepare our minds to commune with our Creator. We believe it is wrong to take freedom away from anyone and will fight for our rights to worship in whatever manner we choose. We will not stand by and allow our liberties to be taken. Ours is more than just a nondenominational church. It is a movement. Stand with us, join us, worship with us, and bring whatever you believe with you.

When

The Seven Core Values of the Native American Church

Respect

# 1

Respect is being polite, kind, and careful towards someone or something important to you. In Native American cultures, respect is taught from birth. We are prepared to respect all living things, including other people, animals, the Earth, and our ancestors. We believe that everything has a purpose and that everything has value. We should always be respectful of our Creator and the gifts that are given to us.

Faith

# 6

Faith is the knowledge that your life is in God's hands. It is the ability to see things as they really are and as they really will be.

In the words of Martin Luther King, Jr., "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase."

Honor

Honor is the ability to stand up for what is right and the courage to acknowledge others trying to do the same, including those who have gone before us.

THC

THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the chemical responsible for most of marijuana's psychological effects. It acts much like the cannabinoid chemicals made naturally by the body.

Mescaline

Mescaline or mescalin (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine) is a naturally occurring psychedelic protoalkaloid of the substituted phenethylamine class, known for its hallucinogenic effects.
