The community tab allows Exodus men to synchronize their efforts as they journey together toward uncommon freedom.
The Basics
An Exodus 90 Community is a publicly posted group with a physical address (whether or not you actually meet there, a community needs an address to appear on the map).
Perhaps your parish or diocese wants a place to organize multiple fraternities or to be easily found by new men joining the Exodus 90 app. If so, setting up a community is the best course of action.
Best Practices
When first setting up a community, we recommend writing the description in a personal way so as to invite anyone in the surrounding area to join. It is a great thing to include the name of the leader in that description along with an invitation to reach out, as that engagement can form the foundation of a man's relationship with your community.
Community Creators
As the creator of a Community, you have Community Leader permission. It will be your responsibility to be a good steward of men in your area. You should help connect and welcome new men, help form fraternities, and support community events. It will also be your role to act as the moderator in your community.
You can also appoint other Community Leaders. You don't have to go at it alone.
FAQ
Can I join multiple communities?
Yes! You can be a part of multiple communities simultaneously. You can navigate between communities using the top bar on the community tab.
If I join on a free trial, will I be kicked out of my community?
If you join a community on a free trial and the trial ends, you will not be dropped from the community. Only deleting your account will remove you from a fraternity.
How do I get a clergy badge?
These badges aren’t automatically granted. If you are a priest and would like the Clergy badge next to your name in a community, reach out to us at [email protected], and we can take care of that for you quickly.
What is the difference between a Fraternity and a Community?
A "community" is a group of groups. It is Exodus Men who are connected geographically. Communities can include dozens of men and are meant to be much larger and broader than fraternities. Communities are public. Communities are represented by orange dots on the map and are open for anyone to join, fostering a broader and inclusive environment for shared experiences.
A "Fraternity" is the small group you meet with on a week-to-week basis and share your exodus experience with. Fraternities are private. Fraternities are invitation-only, allowing for deeper and more private conversations among members, fostering a more intimate setting for collective practice and growth.
Virtual Fraternity Visibility Rules
Virtual Fraternities on the Exodus 90 Fraternity Finder follow specific visibility rules to ensure effective group management:
Remote Fraternities:
A new remote fraternity remains visible for potential members until either:
It reaches 8 members, or
Two weeks have passed since its creation.
After Visibility Ends:
Once either of these conditions is met, the fraternity is no longer publicly listed, though it can be joined via direct invitation
Starting a New Fraternity
To keep an open and visible remote fraternity, you will need to create a new fraternity after the initial visibility period ends.
