Upcoming Events
Workout Warriors Spring 2026
The Workout Warriors are kicking off our Spring Session on Saturday, April 18, 2026, and we are finishing strong on Saturday, June 13, 2026. Our theme this season is Embracing Others: Stronger Together. This spring, we are leaning into community, encouragement, and pushing one another to grow.
For 8 powerful weeks, we will meet every Saturday at 7:30 AM for faith, fun, fitness, and fellowship. This is more than a workout. It is accountability. It is connection. It is growth. All ages. All fitness levels. No excuses. Whether you are just beginning or ready to level up, this group is designed for you. Show up as you are and leave stronger every week.
Spring Baptism
Baptism is a powerful symbol of your spiritual transformation in Christ. It represents leaving behind your old life (going under the water) and rising anew to live for Him (coming out of the water). Jesus calls all who follow Him to be baptized (Matthew 28:19-20), as it beautifully expresses our unity with Him in His death and resurrection.
Celebrate your faith and take the next step in your spiritual journey! Join us for a sacred baptism ceremony on Saturday, May 2nd, at 10:00 AM at Kinetic Physical Therapy. Dedicate your life back to our Father in this meaningful moment with your Koinonia family. Register before the cut off on Sunday, April 26th.

Mother's Day
This Mother’s Day at Koinonia, we’re celebrating moms for every story, every sacrifice, every expression of love.
And we also want to take a special moment to focus in and celebrate single moms.
Life doesn’t always unfold the way we imagined. However it happened, the reality is you’ve been entrusted with something powerful. The question now isn’t just what happened, but how do we respond, and how do we move forward? We honor the strength it takes to keep showing up. The faith it takes to keep going. And the love that continues to lead your home every single day.
You are not overlooked. You are not alone. You are seen, supported, and deeply valued here.
Join us this Mother’s Day as we celebrate all moms and speak life, encouragement, and hope over every single mother in the room.

Fall Baptism
What is baptism? A baptism is an illustration of what happens spiritually when we receive Christ. The act of baptism says I have made a decision to die (go down in the water) to my old way of living and I come up (out of water) alive in Christ to live for Him. Why is this important? The baptism is an ordinance given to us by Jesus for all who have accepted Him to follow (Matthew 28:19-28) and expressed our union with Christ in his death and resurrection (Romans 6:3-6)
If you have not been baptized since accepting Christ or since becoming a member of Koinonia, we welcome you to participate in this sacred time of dedication back to our Father on Saturday, November 15th at 10:00 am Kinetic Physical Therapy!
