Fellowship: Koinonia is lives touching lives that are touched by Jesus
Webster's defines fellowship as an association of persons having similar interests, occupations, enterprises, etc.. It is also defined as community of interest. It involves a sense of belonging.
Among believers in Jesus it is defined by a oneness of spirit in the community of believers. (See Acts 2:42) But the whole story of Koinonia is more then our relationship with each other. It is a gathering together of believer's, knowing that when two or three gather together (fellowship), Jesus is in our midst. (Matthew 18:20)
Koinonia then is lives touching lives that are touched by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Following
I follow where Thou leadest, what are bruises?
There are cool leaves of healing on Thy tree;
Lead Thou me on. Thy heavenly wisdom chooses
In love for me.
Thy lover then, like happy homing swallow
That crosses hill and plain and lonely sea,
All unafraid, so I will fearless follow,
For love of Thee.
