Psacred Passage Ministership

Psanctuary offers scholarships to make our minister programs more accessible while ensuring the sustainability of our offerings. For every four full-rate enrollments, we provide two scholarships at 50% off the program’s full cost.

Scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis to keep the process fair and efficient. This model allows us to support those with financial need while maintaining the collective contributions that sustain our community programs.

Recipients have the opportunity to deepen their journey alongside a diverse group of peers, fostering connection, shared growth, and a thriving community.

Members who have completed the Friends & Family level ministry can perform weddings, funerals basic ministerial functions. Psanctuary does not currently offer trainings for these services but can provide support in developing language or ceremonies.

Ministers performing weddings and funerals are permitted to receive a stipend of no more than $300 for these services.

Friends & Family ministers are not permitted to perform counseling under this level ordination.

Non-Members

Trainees who are not Psanctuary members will have access to all of the same training materials but will not have access to the member chat or live calls.

These training sessions will provide insights on how to work with sacred mushrooms either in the context of their own personal practice (Level 1, Myself) or as space holders for loved ones (Level 2, Friends & Family).

Trainees will also have access to private coaching and mentoring. This is a first come first serve offering with limited space.

One off additional support calls are also available at an additional cost.

This training will not provide any legal defense unless you are a member to another psilocybin church. Much of this information is applicable for those who seek to hold space for the general public but we do not advise this as this demands a much higher level of experience and skill.

Psanctuary members

Trainees will have access to all of the educational materials as well as access to our Mighty Networks private minister chat and all support and integration calls.

Members will receive special pricing for coaching and mentorship as well as private, one off calls.

Members also have access to our donation-based ceremonies held outside of Louisville, Kentucky.

Members who complete Friends & Family training will also have the opportunity to volunteer as space holders for Psanctuary donation-based ceremonies for additional training.
