Alpha

Curious about faith?

Alpha is a series of free weekly sessions where you can explore the basics of the Christian faith in an open-minded and welcoming environment. There's no pressure, just lots of great conversation and space to think.

Each Alpha session usually starts with food! You’ll be hosted in a small group and watch an episode on a different question about the Christian faith - then you’ll have a chance to share your thoughts and hear what others think. You can say anything you like, or nothing at all. Whatever questions you’ve got, you can ask them at Alpha.

Everyone’s welcome. You’re invited, no matter your background or beliefs. It’s free and there’s no pressure to come back.

Where & When?

Our next Alpha course starts in April 2024. You can sign up for the course using the link below. The course will run on Wednesday evenings, 7-9pm for 10 weeks from 24 April finishing on July 3rd (with a break on 29 May).

Not sure if Alpha is for you?

Come along to our introductory evening on Wednesday 24 April, 7-9pm. We will be serving a 2-course meal, free of charge, with a chance to get a feel for an Alpha session before deciding whether to sign up for the course. There will be an opportunity to sign up for the remainder of the course on the night but with no pressure to do so should you choose not to. Bring a friend or meet new ones and get a taster of what Alpha is all about!
