Why ALPHA?
Alpha runs all round the world. Last year, over 2 million people tried Alpha. It’s a safe space to meet people, find out the basics, and share thoughts. Just open conversation over some good food. That’s it. Come along.
What is ALPHA?
A series of interactive sessions where guests have an opportunity to explore life and Christian faith freely in a friendly and informal environment. No pressure. No judgement. No cost.
What's Unique?
ALPHA guests grow individually, yet also develop relationships with others – even if they are not at all like themselves.
EACH ALPHA SESSION IS FREE & HAS THREE ELEMENTS
CONNECTION
Bringing people together as friends sharing a meal is an essential part of Alpha. All sessions start with a time of connection—over a meal —to relax and build friendships. Conversation and sharing in a fun and non-judgmental setting is a major aspect of Alpha.
CONTENT
The Alpha Videos are designed to engage people from all walks of life and inspire conversation. About thirty minutes long, they explore the big issues of life and faith and unpack the unique claims and promises of Christianity, addressing questions like “Is there more to life than this?” “Who is Jesus?”, and “How Can I Have Faith”
CONVERSATION
Probably the most important part of any Alpha: the chance to share thoughts and ideas on the topic in a small group discussion. There’s no obligation to say anything and there’s nothing you can’t say (seriously). It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly and open environment.
ALPHA DAY AWAY
Before the end of the 10 weeks, a highly recommended retreat takes place on a Saturday. For many it’s the most memorable and impact-full part of Alpha.
