Koinonia (coin-no-knee-ah) Circle
Our name comes from the Greek word which means: a fellowship, united by common experiences, creating a mutual bond in which fraternity overrides individualism and promotes belonging and companionship. We are a great mix of ages & interests who love the Lord and seek to serve. Our goals are spiritual enrichment, improved individual health & wellness, and a sharing fellowship that will equip us to go out into the community to be His hands and feet. We look forward to supporting missions for the old as well as the young wherever the need exists in our community.
Location: A204
