...A practical introduction to and renewal of the
Christian Faith
Who is Alpha For?
Alpha is for everyone! Whether you have never been to
church and want to find out what Christianity is all
about—or—whether you are a life-long Christian who wants a
deeper relationship with Christ, Alpha is for you. More than
4 million people in over 130 countries have already
experienced the Alpha Course. It’s an excellent way to meet new
friends, learn the basics of Christianity, get your questions
answered or give your faith a boost. It is a unique
“meet-you-where-you-are” course. Adults of any age or
background can benefit from the relaxed atmosphere and low
pressure setting Alpha provides. Your journey through Alpha is
sure to be a rewarding one.
What is the Alpha course like?
An Alpha evening begins with a light meal and fellowship followed by
an entertaining video tape presentation
on one of a variety of topics such as “Who is Jesus” or “Why and how
should I read the Bible.” After the video,
participants get together in small groups to talk about the presentation
and discuss any questions it has raised for them. Confidentiality plays
an important part in these conversations and no questions are “too
dumb” to ask—or are considered off limits. It is a time to feel free to
ask things that you may never have felt comfortable asking before that
time. It is a relaxed time of learning and fellowship and we will be
finished each week by 9:00 at the latest. Childcare, if needed, is
provided free of charge.
