Communion rooms

Communion rooms are private spaces in Free Spirit meetinghouses where individuals may engage in "covenanting" and "communion" with one another, including and especially sexual activity.
The tradition of providing these rooms comes from their founder, Janella, who offered the use of her guest room to students at a conservative college for this purpose. A typical layout is a lounge area for people to talk in private, a small bathroom, and a third room with a bed.
Free Spirits see any mutual endeavor done intentionally in the light of their core values (love, truth, peace, bliss) as a form of communion, including erotic intimacy. They also see the presence and usage of these rooms as an extension of the broader spiritual practice of hospitality; hence, while these rooms are most often associated with sexual activity, they are also used to provide space for private conversations, rest, or shelter for victims of disaster or domestic violence.
