What is Alpha?

6illions of people have now attended an Alpha course.  These have run in tens of thousands of churches of all denominations across the world.  Alpha is an opportunity for everyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening setting. Originally designed and set up by Holy Trinity Church in Brompton, London, they have proved very popular with non-churchgoers.

Each 6 week course seeks to present the basics of faith clearly but in a way that will not insult your intelligence.  One of the best parts of the course is that you get the chance each week to ask the questions that are relevant to you.

The Alpha format online by zoom:
7.30pm   Welcome 
A DVD Alpha presentation
Split into groups for questions and discussion (depends on numbers)

We are running a course starting on Monday 29th June at 7.30pm.

On a Alpha course held at No.4 Combe Road:
There is no charge for the food, course, course materials or refreshments. You will meet not only with ordinary people from the church but with others who are looking afresh at matters of faith and belief.
Due to Covid-19 you will join in the Alpha from the comfort of your own sofa and supply your own refreshments but the course and course materials will be free...

There is a new website, www.christianity.org.uk, bursting with thought-provoking, balanced articles about the Christian faith.

What is Christianity all about?
Christianity is the world’s biggest religion, and yet many people don’t know very much about it. If you’re one of those, then this is a great place to start!
 
Who is God? God is central to the Christian faith and these articles aim to give you a greater understanding of who he is.
