The Family claims knowledge of many individual demons, angels and other spirits. They believe that referring to spirits by name gives their [[prayer]]s extra effect. For example, a Family member in prayer may call on [[Ellya]] to help them wield the [[Keys of the Kingdom]] to fend off [[Vandari]] attacking the group through media exposure. Or instead of simply praying to overcome a physical addiction, a Family member may call on [[Boheme]] to sever the tentacles of [[Bacchus]] with the [[Keys of the Kingdom|Key]] of Resolve.
