What Is Alpha?
Alpha is a practical introduction to the Christian
faith. Our intent with Alpha
is to provide an opportunity to explore what authentic Christianity
is all about.
Alpha is a safe place to ask honest questions about life, faith,
and God.
Along the way there will be great opportunities for meeting new
friends
and learning together.
Alpha is for:
- Anyone interested in finding out more about the
Christian faith.
Adults of all ages are welcome.
- Learning and laughter.
It is possible to learn about the Christian faith and to have
fun at the same time.
- People meeting together.
An opportunity to get to know others and to make new friends.
- Helping one another.
The small groups give you a chance to discuss issues raised during
the talks.
- Ask anything.
Alpha is a place where no question is seen
as too simple or too hostile.
Who Is Alpha For?
Alpha is for everyone! It's especially geared
to:
- People interested in investigating Christianity.
- Newcomers to the church.
- New Christians.
- Those who feel that they have never really got
going as a Christian.
- Those who want to brush up on the basics.
What Happens at Alpha?
There is a series of talks on topics such as:

other and to learn together.
