Alpha
What is Alpha?
- Alpha is a place to explore the Christian faith with others. Each session has food, a talk,
and space to discuss and ask questions. - It is designed for people without a church background or who wouldn’t call themselves
a Christian. It’s an opportunity to invite friends to hear the Gospel (potentially for the first time) and explore a relationship with Jesus (you can even attend with them).
What Can I Expect?
- Over 10 weeks you can expect relevant topics, relatable hosts, and a relaxed environment.
- Each session begins with a meal, providing an opportunity to get to know others in a casual setting.
- Food is followed by a short talk that examines a different aspect of the Christian faith that start great conversations that everyone can be open and honest in participating in.
