What is the point of life, what happens when we die? 

 

Is forgiveness possible?

 

What relevance does Jesus have for our lives today?

 

What is Alpha?

 

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

It’s relaxed, non-threatening, low key, friendly and fun.

 

There is a meal together at the beginning of each session which gives you an opportunity to get 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 is 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 the basics

·                     Parents bringing children for baptism

·                     Those considering baptism or confirmation for themselves

 

What will it cost?

 

There is no charge for the Alpha course, although you may be asked to make a contribution towards food.

 

When and Where

 

We run Alpha courses two or three times every year.  Details can normally be found in one of the churches in the team or the village magazines.  Alternatively please email us.
