koinwniða: Greek for fellowship. That’s what we’re all about: fellowship with God and with each other. We “do” life together, learn more about ourselves, and figure out how God fits into all of this!
A little intimidated by our large size? That’s why we’ve divided ourselves into subdivisions to provide cozier settings. We meet by small groups of 5-10 people about once a week to study the Bible, share, pray, or just hang out. For larger trips and fun outings, we go out by ‘Home Groups’. Home Groups consist of 2-3 small groups put together, and it’s like your little family where you feel most at home. A little confused? We don’t blame you! Try our FAQpage to find out more.
College is a fun and exciting time to build life long friendships and think about life. We hope that you can check out Koinonia and find your home away from home with us!
At Koinonia Berkeley we meet throughout the week and our activities are a great way to connect with other college students. Each of us is hard-wired for relationships - with God and each other. Where better to find that than through a small group? Maybe you like the idea of a great in-depth study of a Bible passage. Perhaps you’re looking to pray with friends, and share lives, or just meet with others to read the Bible. Chances are, there’s a place for you to connect through one of our activities.
Weekly Bible Study
Every Friday night we gather in home groups to study the Bible’s rich insights and relevance in our everyday lives. Don’t forget to stick around for a cozy time of fellowship afterwards. Come and join us!
Small Group
Small groups are close knit groups that meet during the week to study the Bible, pray for different needs, or to just share about our lives. Interested in joining one?
Devotional Time
We meet for daily devotional times throughout the week in order to read, reflect, and share about specific Bible passages. This gives us the opportunity to share about how God is personally leading us to live that day.
Prayer Meeting
Tuesdays, 6:30-8:00pm
