"Communitas prioritizes appreciative inquiry which encapsulates a listening curious approach. It isn’t about imposing a model or showing up as the people with all the answers. It’s about partnering, questioning, and seeing what God is doing in an area and joining in."

- Barbara, UK

"Communitas is innovative. There’s no set model to mass produce. Communitas' culture holds the tension between grace and truth."

- Remko, Netherlands

"Communitas is a network of people who love their neighbors and desire to show them the love of Jesus in tangible ways. We especially desire to see those often ignored by traditional expressions of church experience the goodness of God in relevant and transformative ways."

- Leon, Minnesota
