The Ingredients To Alpha Course
Connect
We meet in the Church Building in a face to face meeting. Firstly, we relax with refreshments and some cakes and get to know one another. Once the groups have been running a few weeks there is a growing friendship with one another. As a result, catching up and sharing news becomes the major part of this first part of each week. Alpha is an opportunity to explore life’s big questions together in an open, informal environment.
Watch
We then run through one episode of the course each week. Three episodes covering the topic of the Holy Spirit are presented on a Saturday event. For 2024 this will be Sat 19th October 9:30 am - 3:30 pm.
