What is Alpha?
The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening atmosphere. Each evening starts with light refreshments, which gives everyone a chance to get to know each other, make friends and have fun. This is followed by a short presentation and then discussion, where opinions can be shared and any question asked – no question is too simple or too hostile!
Who is Alpha For?
Alpha is for anyone who wants to investigate Christianity, and also for new Christians and newcomers to the church.
What's Involved?
The series of 13 talks cover key topics including "Who is Jesus?" "Why did Jesus dies"? "Why and how to pray." "How to read the Bible" and "Who is the Holy Spirit?"
What Does It Cost?
Alpha is free. However we welcome any contributions which will go to support charity projects we are supporting.
Why Is It Called Alpha?
In the last book of the Bible, Revelation, God refers to himself as “The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end” (chapter 1:8), using the first and last letters of the Greek Alphabet. This course is a place to start asking questions and discovering answers and it directs people to God – hence it is called ‘Alpha’.
