WHAT IS ALPHA?

Alpha is designed for anyone who wants to explore the Christian responses to the big questions of life.

This 10 week course consists of sharing dinner, watching a video or guest speaker, and engaging in small group discussions. An optional weekend retreat is offered at the end of the course.

Some topics discussed at Alpha:

Is there more to life than this?

How can I have faith?

Who is Jesus?

How can I read the Bible

How does God guide us?

Does God heal today?

Why the Church?

“I guarantee it is time well spent. I will personally guarantee that you won’t regret going.”

When my Mom invited us to Alpha in the Fall of 2016, I had lots of excuses. An energetic 6 year old, a 3 year old who was very loud and didn’t sleep much, a job that demanded around 70 hours per week, and an amazing and talented spouse whose workplace skills were in high demand.

The only reason I attended was for the childcare and the free dinners, which by the way, didn’t disappoint. 

I was a born again, Bible believing Evangelical nondenominational strongly Anti Catholic Protestant. At the alpha course I met Catholics, non Catholic Christians, atheists, and agnostics. It’s truly a course for everyone.

 Wherever you are in your faith journey, I am convinced God has big plans for you. The alpha course is a fun, unintimidating way to kick start that process of growth in your life. Please consider either course, Sunday morning or Wednesday evening. If your schedule means you will miss a week or two, don’t sweat it. Go when you can. But, don’t be like me and skip the retreat. Having since attended, twice....I guarantee it is time well spent. I will personally guarantee that you won’t regret going.
