Communio starts with a congregational self-assessment, so the training addresses the real needs of real couples in the pews.

Throw a rock into a pond and watch it ripple. 💛 That's how Communio Church Strategist Steve Scansen describes what happens when a congregation learns the skills for healthy relationships. In one Montana church, 110 out of 150 members went through relationship skills training in a single year — and the ripple reached far beyond Sunday morning.
