There is little talking during a typical 5-7 hour Santo Daime Work, and lots of singing

  • Singing hymns creates a healing current
  • The doctrine of the Santo Daime is contained in the hymns and prayers
    • Most hymns and prayers are in Portuguese; just do your best

This is a modest spiritual path

  • Women and men sit separately
    • Women guardians attend to women, and men guardians to men
  • Participants wear all white, or very light colors. (Blue and green are good colors for outerwear like jackets and sweaters). We dress modestly, meaning long pants for men, and long skirts or loose pants (preferred) for women; covered shoulders for everyone

We seek harmony

  • Various forms and structures are in place to promote harmony

What to bring

  • A water bottle that closes securely, a fleece/sweater (wear layers), snacks for afterwards, hymn books (if you have them)
  • If you don’t have printed hymn books, please bring a tablet or other electronic device for accessing electronic versions

The current donation for each Work is $100

  • 10% goes toward a scholarship fund
