Alpha is an interactive series that allows you to explore life, faith, and meaning, while connecting with others. It’s a space where you can listen to different perspectives and freely share your own in a respectful, friendly, and open environment.
What people are saying about Alpha:
"I was originally skeptical about coming to Alpha. However, this has been a wonderful experience. I didn't feel any pressure, but instead, I felt the love from all the volunteers. Alpha had provided a place for me to learn, reflect, and discuss. I felt that it paved the path for me to build a relationship with God."
- Charles, Alpha Guest from Fall 2024
"Alpha was really great! It was a good way to learn and know the Lord. I hope more people can join and learn. I was happy to meet new people and make friends here."
- Vicky, Alpha Guest from Fall 2024
