The Alpha Course
Each week people meet together and there is a video presentation on topics such as "Who Is Jesus?", "How Does God Guide Us", and "How Can I Be Sure Of My Faith?" After the talk you will divide into smaller groups to share refreshments and to discuss your questions and/or reactions from the talk. There may also be an opportunity for a mini-retreat midway through the course. This retreat can be a key part of the Alpha course and a great success in helping people get to know each other. Who is Alpha for? · Regular individuals looking for valid and relevant answers to life’s most important questions · People interested in new joy and excitement in their Christian faith · Someone who has doubts or questions · New believers in Jesus Christ and newcomers to the church · Anyone wanting to have a growing relationship with God and others

Alpha
is an 11-week opportunity to explore the validity and relevance of
the Christian faith for our lives today. It is a non-denominational
introduction to the core truths of Christianity with an emphasis on
practical application to daily life. The style of Alpha is informal,
friendly and non-pressured. No matter what your background—whether
you are just starting your faith journey or you want to grow closer
to God and others— you will get a lot out of an Alpha Course.
