One of the key characteristics of the church of the New Testament was their commitment to fellowship. The Greek word that is commonly translated as fellowship is Koinonia. Koinonia does mean fellowship, but in Greek culture, it meant more. It connotes a level of unity and intimacy that supersedes simple fellowship. It implies a willingness to be involved in the lives of others and sacrifice when they are in times of need. One of our primary goals is to facilitate an environment where true Koinonia can grow and flourish.

Although Koinonia implies unity, we also realize that God is a creator of diversity and each of His creations are unique. Each of His people are unique. We strive to make room each individual’s unique gifts and callings. This can best be summed up by the Moravian Motto, “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, freedom; in everything, love.”
