Alpha
Welcome to Alpha
Alpha is an opportunity to explore life and the Christian faith, in a friendly, open and informal environment.
Gathering once a week over an eleven week period, each Alpha brings together people from every walk of life.
No matter where Alpha takes place, the format is the same. We eat together, we listen to a talk and then we gather together in small groups for discussion. Over 29 million people across the globe have done Alpha.
Who is Alpha for?
Alpha can be for anyone, but is especially designed for you if you aren't sure what you believe! The beauty is that there are no questions that are too hostile, too silly or too simple. Alpha has no prerequisites, whatsoever. We come together with one another as we are, free to be ourselves.
How can I take part?
Our 2026 Spring Alpha will begin on Monday, February 9th at 6PM in the St. Bernard's Parish Hall.
