Madrinha Jessica (Founder)

Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is the Madrinha of Céu do Montréal, which she founded in 1997 in Montréal, Canada. She was the President from 2000 – 2024. She is an ordained Inter-Faith Minister with a Doctorate in Divinity. A transpersonal counsellor, she trained in the work of Dr. Roberto Assagioli and trained with Dr. Stanislav Grof. From 2001 to 2017 she worked with Health Canada to achieve the recognition of the Santo Daime as a legitimate religion and the right to import the Santo Daime Sacrament for ritual use. In June 2017, this mission was accomplished and Céu do Montréal received an Exemption to import and serve the Santo Daime Sacrament. For more information please see the legalization section.

Her books are available on Amazon or Freisen Press. In her words:

Ayahuasca Awakenings: A Guide to Self-Discovery, Self-Mastery and Self-Care, Volumes One and Two, were written in response to frequent requests for me to put into a "guidebook" the theories and concepts that I teach. It is my sincere hope that these books will provide readers with the information they need to navigate their personal journey of self-discovery. — Jessica Rochester D.Div. March 4, 2022
