Church Hours: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm, 7 days a week

Telephone: 707-887-7808

Visitors are welcome at any time during open hours and may sit in quiet meditation or prayer.

SPECIAL CANDLE SERVICES:

Spiritual candle services with prayers and the setting of lights are held daily -- and visitors may watch.

You may schedule a candle service for yourself or a loved one, either in person or via long distance. Here's how:

• If you have never ordered a candle service from our church before, please read more here:
About How Candle Services are conducted at Missionary Independent Spiritual Church

• If you are ready to order a long distance candle service with a candle reading, please place your order here:

Order Candle Services for Spiritual Aid with Petitions and Prayers
• If you are an in-person or walk-in client of the occult shop next door, you can use our altars as a courtesy.
If you have no safe way to set lights at your home, you may use the church's altars as a place to set the candles that that you purchased, fixed, and dressed there. This is also a great way to set memorial or yahrzeit candles or special request candles that will burn while you are travelling or not at home.

These courtesy settings are not church candle services, because either you or a shop employee -- not one of our Deacons -- will have fixed the candle, and the candle glass will not receive a reading from one of our ministers.

We do require that all candles set on the church's altars have petition papers affixed. If they are "courtesy settings" from the shop, the words "No Reading" should be written on the outside of each petition. If you wish us to hold your courtesy-set lights for you to pick up, please add your name and the words "No Reading -- Hold For Pick-up" to the ouside of the petition. We will hold them in a box in our reading room for one month, after which, if you do not return and pick them up, the candle-gass will be recycled.


FREE ONLINE PRAYER SERVICES:

We offer a free and confidential online prayer network in which we will pray for you and you may pray for others.

• To join our online prayer chain and pray for yourself or a loved one via the internet, please see our page on

MEMBERSHIP

Our church is open to the public. You do not need to be a floor member of the church to visit us or to request a spiritual reading, consultation, or candle service. Readings, spiritual candle services, and prayer services are held on behalf of all interested parties -- including those in far away states and nations.

We also offer baptisms in the church to those who have a sincere interest. Because the church is small and many of our congregants contact us through the internet, at this time, all those with a sincere interest in closer affiliation to the church are cordially invited to join our permanent Yahoo discussion group at

DRIVING DIRECTIONS

Take California State Highway 101 to Santa Rosa, California.

From Santa Rosa, take Guerneville Road west to the end of the road at a 'T' intersection with Highway 116. Turn right (north) on Highway 116 and proceed to the town of Forestville.

As you enter Forestville, the road makes a sweeping uphill left-hander, and at the crest of the hill you'll see Carr's Drive-in on the right. This is the junction of Covey Road and 116.

Turn right (north) on Covey Road and pass between two churches (a large tan one on the left and a small white one on the right).

Cross Center Street and continue for one-half block and on your left you'll see a post with the number 6632 in white lettering on green tiles, atop a larger black-and white sign that reads, "Drive Slowly. Watch for Animals."

Enter the driveway, which is lined with rose bushes, apple trees, and fence posts on which there are nailed abalone shells. Drive to the top of the hill and park by the big old barn, where an old yellow and black sign says "Customer Parking. Unauthorized Cars Will Be Towed Away."

Walk across on the sidewalk to the bright red church building, in front of the grey building (an occult shop).

If you get lost: You may telephone for more detailed directions: 707-887-7808.
