The Alpha Course

The Alpha CourseWhat is it?

Supper There is a light meal together at the beginning of each session which gives people a chance to get to know each other. Talk After each talk we divide into small groups to discuss the topic of the evening, ask questions and express opinions. Coffee & Small groups Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile.
