What is Alpha?

Simply put, in an Alpha Course guests meet weekly for dinner, a video, and open discussion!

Alpha helps create a safe space for honest conversation around some of life’s biggest questions. It's designed to provide guests an opportunity to connect with one another and share thoughts, ideas, and opinions about faith in an open, non-judgmental environment.

What do previous guests say?

I had the absolute best experience! I was pleasantly surprised by the video content – it is so well done and simplifies faith in a refreshing way!
And my group was amazing – love having friends and faces I recognize at church now. (Kelsey)

I wasn’t sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed meeting new people from parish and the videos. The small groups were fun and really helped people to open up and discuss topics that would’ve been tough to do in large groups. (Scott)

I enjoyed sharing in small groups, meeting new people, and building community to make our church more alive. (Becky)

I really enjoyed the entire 10 weeks. It was very thought provoking and interesting. I felt the sincerity and the faith pouring out of every video. We had great discussions in our small group. (Susan)

I just loved Alpha so much! I enjoyed being in a group of varying ages and with people in different seasons of life. Just being able to sit in a group and openly discuss God and faith was so spiritually rewarding and fulfilling for me. (Alex)
