Broadly stated, this venue offers information under two sub-headings Tutorial programs and Recreational/Volunteer activities. The tutorial programs focus on technological literacy, creative expression, and academic assistance with regard to coursework and standardized testing. Recreation services include information on Koinonia reunions, religious education, and wholesome entertainment for families in order to commune together, among like-minded individuals, and build Christian relationships away from the debasement of most popular forms of entertainment.

COUNSELING
These programs involve not only workshops to improve safety and security in the home, but also a proactive role for those in the community stricken by grief, illness, immobility, or hunger. Koinonia recognizes that, while catharsis is the beginning of the healing process, it may be difficult to ask for help because of pride and self-esteem issues. It is our goal to be as accessible as possible and to demonstrate, with actions rather than words, the presence of God in all of our daily affairs.

PLAN
These programs will be offered under three broad subject headings: health, education, and counseling.
VISION
Koinonia Partners is a progressive and dynamic Christian organization with a history of successful programs, such as Habitat for Humanity, which have demonstrated to the community of believers that faith is an active process of community involvement, not just a canon of beliefs. The community center will continue this tradition of excellence by providing worthwhile, timely, and up-to-date services for those in need and educating the less-fortunate on a number of programs to improve their collective health and quality of life.
MISSION
It is the mission of the Koinonia Community Outreach Center to provide philanthropic service to the “global community of humankind” using a grass roots approach which is spiritually centered, volunteer oriented, and focused toward expounding the greater glory of God through a number of charitable works.
“We are committed
to meeting the needs
of all people in the community”
