Alpha Course

Who is it for?
The Alpha course is for everyone, especially:

• People who want to investigate Christianity
• Those beginning the Christian Faith journey
• Newcomers to the Church

Our courses usually attract a diverse range of guests of different ages and backgrounds, holding many different viewpoints. Guests attend for a variety of reasons – some want to investigate whether God exists; others are concerned about what happens after death. Some people have particular questions that they would like to discuss; others want to understand other people’s beliefs or would like to explore what life is all about.

Many guests have never been to church, others may have attended church occasionally but feel they have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith. All are welcome just to come and explore.

How the course works:
The course is based around small groups, hosted by one or two leaders whose role is to facilitate and encourage discussion.

There is a short talk, which looks at a different aspect of the Christian faith each week. This is then followed by a time of discussion in the small groups, where everyone is welcome to contribute, ask questions and discuss with the rest of the group. The emphasis is upon exploration and discovery in a relaxed and informal environment.
