Koinonia Community : ウィキペディア英語版 | Koinonia Community
Koinonia is a lay Christian community with social and humanitarian projects in Kenya, Zambia and the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. == Origin and Community == The Koinonia Community was initially founded in 1988 by Father Renato Kizito Sesana, a Comboni Priest, and a group of young men from different professions and backgrounds. Members of the community live as one family, sharing dreams, successes and failures, with their inspiration being the life of the early biblical Christians as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles. Today, the community has about thirty members, all of whom are financially independent. Koinonia Community members are committed to the growth of the local society within which Koinonia is based. In line with their calling, the members strive to counteract the economic and social evils bred by individualism and abject poverty. The members try, in their daily lives, to integrate the best of African tradition and Gospel values into a commitment to belong to the modern world. To achieve this aspiration, the Community gives special attention to modern means of social communication and their role in fostering a sense of unity and belonging within the society.
