What is a missional community? A missional community is a group of 20 to 50+ people who are united around a common purpose to a particular neighborhood, network of relationships or cause. The missional community is group that works in the world for the sake of those who otherwise would likely not walk through the doors of the church. A missional community would also be rightly viewed as an extended family – the kind of family that our grandparents once enjoyed. They take the word community seriously as they live out their faith together – supporting one another, worshipping together and serving around the neighborhood and/or greater city, wherever God calls them to go. Missional communities are intended to move us beyond the walls of the church building for the sake of the city.
Here is a set of videos that provide a picture of what life within a missional community looks like:
