The Alpha Course
An opportunity to explore the meaning of life.
WHAT IS ALPHA?
It's relaxed, low key, friendly and fun. In the relaxed setting of a local coffee shop come along to listen, learn, discuss and discover. Ask anything - Alpha is a place where no question is too simple.
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 on the basics
WHEN AND WHERE?
The Alpha Course runs from 19th February until 22nd April at Cream coffee shop in Broomhill. Each evening starts at 7.30pm and should run until 9.00pm. Please see below for a full list of dates.
