Learn more about the Alpha program which begins Tuesday, September 9.  Anyone interested in spiritual renewal may come to try Alpha for one night.  Alpha is a 10-week course that presents some of the basic teaching of the Christian faith.  Each meeting begins with a meal followed by a video on a subject central to the Christian faith.  (No meal will be provided on the Introduction Night)  It is an opportunity for adults of all backgrounds to explore the meaning of life in a safe, fun and non-threatening atmosphere.  Alpha is non-denominational.  All over 18 are welcome.

The video topic on August 26 will be:

“Christianity: Boring, Untrue and Irrelevant?”

Christianity is public truth.  If it is true for anyone—it is true for everyone.  If it isn’t true for anyone—it isn’t true for everyone.

Discussion:       What does Christianity have to do with life today?

                             Does it matter what we believe?
