Got questions about life? 

Ask at Alpha.

Alpha is a place to ask the big questions of life. Connect with others online to watch a series of episodes and explore the Christian faith together.
 

What is Alpha?

Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith, run over eleven weeks. Each talk looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. Alpha is going online this time so all can come. Everyone is welcome.
 

A chance to connect

Usually, Alpha starts with a meal together but during this time of social distancing we’ve needed to adapt. Each session still kicks off with a chance to meet new people and connect over video chat! Feel free to rock up with your own drink and nibbles. After all we are here to socialise !
 

Watch an episode

The Alpha episodes are about 30 minutes long. Packed with interesting facts and thoughts to inspire you to discuss and unpack the basics of Christianity. Each week brings a new topic  - addressing such questions as Who is Jesus?, How can we have faith ? How does God guide us?
 

Space to share your thoughts

This is the most important part of Alpha. Your chance to share thoughts, ideas on the topic and discuss openly in a small group. You can say anything or nothing. This is your opportunity to be heard and to listen to others perspectives in an honest, friendly and open environment.
