What is Alpha?

The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith.

It’s relaxed, low key, friendly and fun.

There is a meal together at the beginning of each session which gives an opportunity

to get to know each other.

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 consists of a series of talks looking at topics such as “Who is Jesus?”

and “Why and how do I pray?” After each talk, we divide into small groups for a time

of discussion.

Who is Alpha for?

Alpha is for everyone, especially:

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

What will it cost?

There is no charge for the Alpha course, although contributions towards the meal are welcome!
