Alpha

Who is Alpha for?

  • Those wanting to investigate Christianity
  • New Christians
  • Newcomers to the church
  • Those who want to brush up on the basics

What’s involved?

Alpha is really popular way for people of all ages and backgrounds to find out more about the Christian faith in a relaxed non-threatening way.

Each session involves a talk about an aspect of the Christian faith before dividing into smaller groups for tea and coffee, with the opportunity to discuss any questions raised from the talk.
