Welcome to the Koinonia Women’s Ministry page! We’re so glad you’re here!
We’ll meet at the church building at 6:30 PM each Wednesday (watch the app for any changes to the schedule). If you’re interested in enjoying a meal first, dinner is served at 6:00 PM.
Koinonia (sounds like Koy-no-NEE-ah) is a Greek word meaning Christian fellowship.
We are starting back up with our weekly women’s Bible study, and we would love to have you join us Wednesday evenings for fellowship, Bible study, and prayer.

We’ll begin our morning at 10:00 AM with Jenny’s story, followed by a salad lunch and fellowship. The event is free, but an RSVP is needed. The sign up sheet will be available in early March.
Meet Jenny…
In 1976, Jenny Peterson was a normal everyday young mother who lived in De Smet with her husband, Ron and their two young children, 5-year-old Chad and Heather, who was two.
Jenny and her children in 1973.
A sore throat that wasn’t getting better prompted a late-night visit to the Emergency Room. Over the course of the next days and months, Jenny struggles to survive after losing 100% of her skin, being declared legally blind and left addicted to pain medications.
Jenny’s miraculous journey of faith, perseverance and hope over the next 33 years to return her life to what she once knew will inspire you.
On April 18, 2026, you are invited to meet Jenny at Preston Christian Church (Bruce, SD) and hear her inspirational story.
“A great story of survival, persistence, family and community support and determination. A very inspirational story.” -Dr. Eugene Hoxtell
