The Alpha Course

Over 8 million people have now attended an Alpha course, an opportunity to explore the meaning of life, running in tens of thousands of churches of all denominations across the world.

Alpha is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions, with a day or weekend away.

It is low-key, friendly and fun – and is supported by all the main Christian denominations.

The Alpha Course consists of a series of talks addressing key issues relating to the Christian faith.

Supper There is a light meal together at the beginning of each session which gives people a chance to get to know each other.

Talk After each talk we divide into small groups to discuss the topic of the evening, ask questions and express opinions.

Coffee & Small groups Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile.
