‘We are a community’: A look inside the first psychedelic church in Colorado

…the state’s first psychedelic church is operating in El Paso County.

State Representative Judy Amabile, D – Boulder, Clear Creek, Gilpin, and Larimer counties… explained… “As long as the people who are members of the church are not required to pay anything for the product, then yes, that would be legal.” That’s the concept at the church, which is located in the basement of Benji Dezaval’s home. “We’ve definitely outgrown my basement, and what wonderful problems to have,” Dezaval said with a laugh. Dezaval said the church first opened its doors in February with around 15 members. Now, he estimates there are anywhere from 350 to 400 people who are part of the congregation. “We’re a community, and that is reflected in our communal space, in the natural medicines that we provide [that] we call communal gifts,” Dezaval explained. “We’re not a healing center. We are not a medical facility. I am not a medical professional, and I do not offer any medical advice. We are a church. We are a community.” …offered at the church include psychedelic mushrooms, dimethyltryptamine (DMT), and mescaline. All of the substances are grown or extracted within Dezaval’s home.
