Ownership Acknowledgment & Agreement to a Lien on Entheogenic Sacraments:
As a member of BMC, I am fully aware that I am in full ownership of the Entheogenic Sacrament I receive and have ownership rights over said Entheogenic Sacrament from the moment it is cultivated on behalf of the congregation. That, when I provide cash contributions, I am merely reimbursing the church for the time, travel, laboratory testing, maintenance and upkeep of the sacrament provided within. I am by no means “paying for” or “purchasing” my sacrament as I already have ownership over said Entheogenic Sacrament.
I acknowledge that Bay Mycos Community is providing me with my sacrament which requires regular maintenance and upkeep of which I acknowledge I must reimburse Bay Mycos Community at the amount deemed necessary by Bay Mycos Community Management Members to cover these overhead costs. I acknowledge that a portion of the reimbursement I provide to Bay Mycos Community is also applied towards the sacrament needed for other members of this association that are unable to afford to pay for these overhead costs associated with obtaining their sacraments. I thus authorize Bay Mycos Community to maintain possession of said sacrament until the time I have reimbursed Bay Mycos Community for the overhead costs associated with the quantity of Entheogenic Sacrament that is reasonably related to my religious needs.
