ALPHA
Alpha's fall session begins on Wednesday, September 10th.
Alpha is a ten-week practical introduction to the Christian faith that offers answers to some key questions. Each weekly session begins with an informal dinner, followed by some large group learning time, and ends with small-group discussion and interaction. It’s ideal for those who have never attended church, those thinking about returning to church or those wanting to understand more about their faith.
The first night isn’t a commitment. It’s simply a chance to see if Alpha might be for you. Bring a friend, and learn more about this course for exploring what faith means to our everyday lives. Our topic for the first evening is: “Is There More to Life Than This?”
If you like what you hear and want to return for the rest of the course, we'd love to have you!
