ALPHA COURSES    

Millions of people across the world have attended an Alpha Course, an opportunity to explore the meaning of life, running in tens of thousands of churches of all denominations across the globe. Alpha is an opportunity for anyone and everyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions, with a day or weekend away. It's low key, friendly and fun and is supported by all the main Christian faiths.

At New Life we run three Alpha courses. A main course, Alpha for Seniors and Youth Alpha. Contact details for each of these are shown at the end of this page. All courses follow approximately the same pattern but

A typical Alpha evening runs something like this.....(approximate timings!)

7.15 p.m. Supper or Light Meal

The course begins with a meal of some kind provided by volunteers from our church (food is guaranteed to be really great!!) Participants sit round at tables to encourage people to get to know each other.

8.00 p.m. Talk and DVD

The main part of the evening where we either have a talk or raise a popular issue relating to the Christian faith. Included in this section of the evening is more background to the Alpha course.

8.15 p.m. Coffee Break 

After the talk and DVD the end of the talk, we break for a cup of coffee and a chance to chat amongst ourselves.

8.45 p.m. Small Groups/Summary/Course ends

Many past attenders of our Alpha courses have found a small group sessions to be the most valuable and rewarding times of the whole course. This is is an opportunity to chat/discuss in a non-threatening and relaxed environment.
