What is the Alpha Study?
The Alpha Study is a series of interactive sessions that explore the Christian faith in an open, friendly, and informal environment. It’s a perfect opportunity for newcomers, as well as long-time believers, to deepen their understanding of the basics of Christianity.
This semester, we’ll be walking through the Alpha Study as a whole group during the Wednesday night classes. Each week will include dinner, teaching, discussion, and time for prayer.
