    Alpha

    “The Alpha course really strengthened my relationship with God, and in turn, also strengthened my relationship with my wife. As we grew in faith together, we realized what was really important to us. The Alpha Course is a must-have.”

    Michael Puliafico

     

     

     

     

    The ALPHA Course is a ten-week course that is offered twice a year for anyone interested in exploring the meaning of life and the basics of Christianity. Why are we here? What happens when we die? What relevance does Jesus have for our lives? For ten consecutive Wednesday evenings, Alpha participants enjoy a home-cooked meal together and then hear a video-talk on the topic of the evening. After each talk there is a small-group time for everyone to discuss any questions or issues they have. This gives an opportunity to get to know each other and to learn together. Every person and every opinion welcome! Call Sharon at 372-4704.
     

     

    “The Alpha course answered a lot of my questions. Nicky Gumbel, the speaker, has a great sense of humor.”

     Pasta (or other great food).
     Helping one another in small group discussions.
     Ask anything; no question is too simple, too difficult, or too hostile.
