Alpha USAThe Alpha Course - An Opportunity to Explore the Meaning of Life

  • What is the meaning of life?
  • What happens when we die?
  • What relevance does Jesus have for our lives?
  • How do we deal with guilt?

If you would like to explore questions like these, then Alpha is for you.

The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore spirituality from a Christian perspective. Relaxed, non-threatening, low-key and fun. Alpha is a place to ask anything!

Learning and laughter. It is possible to learn about the Christian faith and to have fun at the same time.

People meeting together. An opportunity to get to know others and make new friends.
