Alpha

The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the meaning of life from a Christian perspective in a relevant and non-threatening way.Relaxed, low-key, and fun, Alpha is a place to ask anything: no question is considered too simple or too tough.

• What's involved? Over nine thought-provoking, weekly sessions, Alpha guests share meals, listen to a series of talks, and then have small group discussions.  Each talk covers a fundamental question, such as: Who is Jesus? Why and How do I Pray? and How Does God guide us?
• Where did Alpha come from? Alpha started in London in 1990.  Now more than 13 million people all around the world have completed the Alpha course. Meeting in homes, schools, universities, military posts, and prisons, Alpha is supported by churches of every major denomination.
• Is it for you? Everyone is welcome to participate in the Alpha course! Some people want to investigate whether God exists and if there is any point to life; others are concerned about what happens after death.  Still others may have attended church, but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith.  People come from many different backgrounds and hold many different viewpoints, but most come with the same basic objective: to establish whether God and Jesus Christ have any real relevance for their lives. 
• What will it cost? The Alpha course is free.  Guests are invited to make a voluntary contribution toward the food.
