What is Alpha?
Alpha is a ten-week
opportunity to explore the validity and relevance of the Christian faith
for our lives today. It is a practical introduction to the basics of
Christianity with loads of opportunity for debate and discussion. The
style of Alpha is informal, friendly and non-pressured. Alpha is enjoyed and appreciated as much by those who have never set foot in a church as it is by those who once attended and by the regular churchgoer. No matter what their background, whether investigating Christianity for the first time or revisiting their faith, participants get a lot out of an Alpha Course. Each week people meet together for a meal, a talk on topics such as "Who is Jesus?", "Why Did Jesus Die?", "How Can I be Sure of My Faith?", and "Does God Still Heal Today?" , followed by small group interaction. There is a day or weekend retreat midway through the course, which focuses on the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Who is Alpha for?
What's involved? The evening Alpha course begins with supper, followed by a video talk. We then divide into smaller groups for coffee and cookies to discuss any questions raised from the talk. What will it cost? There is no charge for the Alpha course, although a small contribution is generally requested for the meal each evening. In addition there is a nominal cost for the food during the Alpha Day Away. However, scholarships are available! When and where? The evening Alpha course usually runs once a week for 10 weeks at the church. There is also one Day Away. |
