What’s it all about?

An Alpha course is a series of sessions all about exploring the big issues around the Christian faith, asking questions, sharing opinions and unpacking the basics of Christianity. Each talk looks at a different aspect and is designed to inspire and create conversation. Alpha takes place all over the world and everyone is welcome. Sessions normally include food, a talk and good conversation.

How much does it cost?

Alpha is completely free.
