What is Alpha?

Do you have questions about life, God, the universe? Then Alpha is for you.

Alpha is a weekly course to explore, ask questions about faith, life and its meaning.

Usually each session includes some food, a short video and a discussion where you can chat through your thoughts and questions with a small group of people.

If you’re interested in exploring questions of life and the Christian faith then read on…

What To Expect?

Alpha is an informal way of finding out more about the Christian faith. There are groups with leaders, but conversations are allowed to flow freely and any question or is OK to ask.
At our evening courses there is usually a home-cooked meal and it’s a chance to get to know other people in Maidstone, before watching a video that explores different questions about a faith each week. After this, we spend some time in groups discussing the topic.
