Alpha is a place where no question is seen as too simple or too hostile. V Newcomers to the church. V New Christians. V Couples preparing for marriage. V Christians who want to brush up on the basics.
Alpha normally starts with a meal.
This helps the guest become better acquainted with the other people in their group. We do ask for a voluntary donation towards the cost of the meal. The main talk of the evening addresses a key issue relating to the Christian Faith. St Joseph's Alpha course uses a video series of Alpha co-founder Nicky Gumble's instruction on each topic as a starting point. At Alpha no question is deemed inappropriate or too hostile, everyone in the group is encouraged to participate.
