______
I have prayerfully reflected upon the personal and spiritual commitment that a Koinonia team requires. I understand that this commitment involves not only weekly meetings on Tuesday evenings (usually 9 PM – midnight), but also a continued level of participation in the Koinonia community at large, both before and after the retreat. I have also discussed this team leadership with other pastoral staff with whom I work, and they support my decision to serve on this team, if asked.
