THE ALPHA COURSE: AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE THE MEANING OF LIFE
What is Alpha?
The Alpha Course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian Faith.
It’s relaxed, non-threatening, low key, friendly and fun.
There is a meal together at the beginning of each session which gives you an opportunity to get to know each other.
Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile.
And its supported by all the main Christian denominations
What is involved?
The Alpha course consists of a series of talks looking at topics such as “Who is Jesus?” and “Why and how do I pray?” After each talk we divide into small groups for a time of discussion. The course runs for 10 weekly sessions (evening or daytime) and a day or weekend away.
Who is Alpha for?
Alpha is for anyone, especially:
- Those wanting to investigate Christianity
- New Christians
- Newcomers to the Church
- Those who want to brush up on the basics
What will it cost?
There is no charge for the Alpha course, although you may be asked to make a contribution towards food.
