The Alpha Course offers you two great opportunities…
1. The opportunity to attend one of the best refresher courses on what
it means to be a Christian. You may have been a Christian for years, or only
for a few months, and you’re struggling perhaps with it all, asking questions
that no one seems to have the answer for. Try attending the Alpha Course on
Thursday evenings.
2. The opportunity to invite a
family member, friend or colleague. You may have talked a bit about your
Christian faith to them and they have shown some interest. The Alpha Course is
such a good introduction to faith in Jesus. Pray for them and ask them along.
Perhaps you should offer to attend the course with them. (Invitations are at
the back of church.)
The course begins with an
introductory evening. We will share a meal
together, and then watch an introductory DVD.
