What is the Alpha Course?

The Alpha Course is a ten-week introduction to Christianity, a forum to ask your questions and find the answers--without feeling like they're being shoved down your throat. Each weekly session consists of dinner, a talk, and a coffee time in  which small groups discuss what they've heard in the talk.

Alpha is for everyone, especially:

• Those wanting to investigate Christianity
• New Christians
• Newcomers to the church
• Those who want to brush up on the basics

Does the Alpha course cost money to attend?
