Koinonia Tables
Koinonia is a Greek word that means “fellowship.” The first mention of koinonia in the Bible is in Acts 2:42, which says, “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” Our Koinonia Tables follow this same Biblical model and provide our church family with a time of food, fellowship, prayer, and teaching. This fall, we have planned a variety of activities and discussions for our Koinonia Tables:
September 5 – The Stringed Keys Band
September 12 – Short Stories by Jesus: “Lost Sheep, Lost Coin, Lost Son”
September 19 – Short Stories by Jesus: “The Good Samaritan”
September 26 – Short Stories by Jesus: “The Pearl of Great Price”
