What is alpha?
Alpha is an opportunity to gather with others and explore the foundations of the Christian faith through open and engaging conversations. It’s a welcoming space where everyone belongs—no matter your story or beliefs, you’re invited to join in.
What to expect
Connection
Life is better when we share it with others. Alpha brings together people from diverse backgrounds who are curious about faith. Every gathering begins with a relaxed time to enjoy food, unwind, and connect with your group.
Content
Each Alpha session explores a unique aspect of faith through a thought-provoking talk or video. These episodes, about 30 minutes long, are designed to spark meaningful conversations as they delve into big questions like “Who is Jesus?”, “How can we have faith?”, and “How does God guide us?”
Conversation
The heart of Alpha is the conversation. In small groups, you’ll have the chance to share your thoughts, ask questions, or simply listen to others. It’s a safe and open space where every perspective is welcome—no pressure, just an opportunity to explore together.

Every Alpha is different, but generally they have three things in common: food, a talk and conversation.
Food – Most sessions start with food, because it’s a great way to connect and get to know everyone there.
Talk – The talks explore the basics of the Christian faith and are designed to inspire conversation. Usually around thirty minutes long, they can be given as a live talk or played as an episode.
Conversation – There is a discussion after the talk where you can share your thoughts and ideas on the session’s topic. You can say anything you like, or nothing at all. It’s your Alpha, on your terms.
