The International Church of Cannabis is a religious organization in Denver that uses cannabis as a sacrament. Members claim the use of cannabis helps elevate people to a higher understanding of self.[1][2]
The chapel headquarters, a converted old church painted by contemporary artists, opened its doors on April 20, 2017.[3] No cannabis consumption is allowed during times the church is open to the public;[4][5] celebrations of the "sacrament of cannabis" are held for members only.[6][7]
