The Alpha Course consists of a series of talks addressing key issues relating to the Christian faith.
Supper - There is a light meal or desert and coffee at the beginning of each session which gives people a chance to get to know each other.
Talk - We watch a video of an interesting, relevant talk about an aspect of the Christian faith.
Small groups - After each talk we divide into small groups to discuss the topic of the evening, ask questions and express opinions.
