The course consists of ten sessions plus an away-day and while you benefit most from attending everything, it is not essential to do so. During Alpha we will look at the following themes: 

 

What's involved?

 

Each session begins at 7.00pm with a meal followed by a theme talk. After a coffee break we divide into small groups to discuss issues raised by the talk. People contribute to the discussion in whatever way they feel comfortable and no question is regarded as too hostile or too simple.

 

 

Who is Alpha for?

 

Alpha is for anyone aged 16 and above. It particularly caters for:  

 

• Who is Jesus? 

• Why did Jesus die? 

• How can I be sure of my faith? 

• Why and how should I read the Bible? 

• Why and how do I pray? 

• How does God guide us? 

• Who is the Holy Spirit and what does he do? 

• How can I be filled with the Holy Spirit?

• Why and how should I tell others? 

• Does God heal today? 

• What about the Church?

• People investigating Christianity 

• New Christians 

• Newcomers to the church 

• Those who what to renew or deepen their faith 

 

What will it cost?

 

There is no charge for the Alpha course, although a contribution towards the the evening meal would be appreciated. There may be a minimal charge for the away-day to cover the cost of the venue and food but we'll confirm that as we go.
