  2. No Guarantees or Warranties:
    The Church does not guarantee specific outcomes or results from spiritual services. Spiritual insights and messages are shared in good faith and with the intent to provide comfort, guidance, and healing, but no assurances are given regarding accuracy, completeness, or applicability.
  3. Non-Substitution for Professional Services:
    Spiritual services offered by the Church are not intended to replace professional advice, including but not limited to medical, psychological, financial, or legal counsel. Individuals are encouraged to consult appropriate licensed professionals for such matters.
  4. Limitation of Liability:
    By participating in any service, event, or session, individuals acknowledge and accept that Three Mystics Spiritualist Church, its representatives, and affiliates shall not be held liable for any decisions, actions, or outcomes arising from their participation. This includes any direct, indirect, or consequential claims.
  5. Voluntary Participation:
    Participation in spiritual services and activities is entirely voluntary. By attending, individuals confirm their understanding of this disclaimer and agree to hold the Church and its representatives free from liability, except in cases of proven fraud or intentional misconduct.
  6. Respect for Spiritual Integrity:
    The Church and its representatives affirm the validity of spiritual experiences and insights shared during services. However, individuals are encouraged to engage with these messages in a manner that resonates with their personal beliefs and circumstances.

Legal Compliance:
This disclaimer is made in accordance with applicable Canadian laws, including consumer protection and liability standards. It does not waive any rights or protections guaranteed under Canadian law.
