Open Space and Future Search can be combined as related steps in a process of helping a community decide on its future. Doing so creates newways to address difficult situations that neither method may be able to handle as well on its own. Two specific case studies following a similar combination design are presented showing the complementary nature of both methods when used together. Some conclusions are offered on when to consider this combined approach.

Key Words: future search • open space • large-scale change • religious communities
