Some want to investigate whether God exists and if there is any point to life; others are concerned about what happens after death; still others have attended church on and off all their life but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith. People come from many different backgrounds, holding many different viewpoints – but all come with the same objective; to establish whether Jesus Christ has any real relevance to their lives.

Over 2 million people have now attended an alpha course

Alpha is –
  • An opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed setting
  • Ten  thought provoking weekly sessions and  an ‘away day’
  • Friendly open discussions and free food.

This completely free course gives everyone a chance to explore some of the key issues about the Christian faith and gives everyone an opportunity to have their questions answered. 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.
How Alpha works –

Alpha courses are based around small groups of about twelve people, led by one or two hosts whose role is to facilitate and encourage discussion. Courses vary in size and might be held over morning coffee or during a lunch hour. Most however are evening courses typically lasting two hours.

Alpha course weekly format –

The Alpha course usually lasts for ten weeks, with a day or weekend away in the middle. Each session begins with a meal or refreshments, then a short talk looking at a different aspect of the Christian faith each week. This is followed by a time of discussion, when guests can ask questions and contribute their opinions.
