Alpha - Explore the meaning of life

 

What is Alpha?

The Alpha course, starting on Thursday 29th September with an introductory session, is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith. It’s relaxed, low key, friendly and fun. Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile. And it’s supported by all the main Christian denominations.

What’s involved?

The Alpha course looks at a series of topics, such as ‘How can I develop a relationship with God?’. After a short presentation, we divide into small groups for a time of informal discussion.

Alpha will be running on Thursday nights from 7.00 – 9.30pm at Caffe Nero. Wallington for 10 weeks, beginning the 29th September. You don’t have to come to the whole course – just pop along for the first night and see what you think. No pressure.

Who is Alpha for?

Alpha if for everyone, especially:

  • Those wanting to investigate Christianity
  • New Christians
  • Newcomers to church
  • Those who want to brush up on the basics

No question is out of bounds and you are free to discuss as much or as little as you wish. We don’t assume any background knowledge of or belief in Christianity and everyone is welcome.

"Alpha has really helped me to seek and find where I am and where God is in my life"

 

"The highlight was definitely the away day and really feeling the Holy Spirit's presence"

 

"I recommend the Alpha course to everyone. If anyone would like to talk or discuss any questions about faith, church, the Bible, prayer join the next course"
