Benefits of Fellowship

Participation and support of the human right to receive and exchange traditional, indigenous and natural medicine, therapy, healing, ceremony and or counseling.

Defines the exchange of services as a traditional, indigenous and natural medicine, therapy, healing or counseling — and not a medical, therapeutic or massage service as defined and regulated by a governmental authority or "licensing" board.

Establishes that neither the communicant nor the minister is "the public" as defined by law and therefore not to be regulated as such.

Establishes the sincerely and firmly held conviction that performing, sharing and participating in ceremony, sacrament and healing is a right of Indigenous Church expression of both Tribal and Religious freedom principles, statute and established precedent.

Communicant–minister privilege ("Right to privacy" between minister and the covenant participant). No Kuleana Integrative Wellness covenant = no communicant–minister privilege. When both minister and communicant are covenant participants, there is no service to the public and no compelling interest of government to intervene. In fact, interfering is specifically prohibited.

If the communicant is not a covenant participant there is no expressive private association fellowship covenant, and no protections afforded to expressive private association among participants.

If the communicant is not a covenant participant there are no Tribal Religious freedoms or protections under AIRFA, RLUIPA, Title 42, 25, 18, etc.

If the communicant is not a covenant participant there is no protection from liability, nor arbitration agreement for dispute between participants.

If the communicant is not a covenant participant there is no legal covenant or understanding that all services, counseling, therapies, etc. are Tribal indigenous religious expressions. This leaves the door open to misunderstanding — either in the moment or at a future date — and open to a relative, partner or medical person misinterpreting the nature of the services.

Services rendered without clearly establishing the nature of the relationship as a religious exchange are subject to being interpreted as a secular service, placing them under the jurisdiction of various state medical practices acts. Clearly establishing the nature of the relationship between the Kuleana Integrative Wellness Priory 1007 minister and the participant reduces and or eliminates confusion and misunderstanding.
