Alpha runs here

What is Alpha?
Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith.  Each talk looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation.  Alpha is run all around the globe, and everyone's welcome.  It runs in cafés, churches, universities, homes — you name it.  No two Alphas look the same, but generally they have three key things in common: food, a talk and good conversation.

First up ... 
Alpha starts with a meal together, with a chance to meet new people and connect.

Then a Talk
The talks are designed to engage and inspire conversation.  Usually around thirty minutes long and delivered over about eleven weeks, they can be given as a live talk or played as a video. They explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions from Who is Jesus? and How can we have faith? to Why and how do I pray? and How does God guide us?  If you would like to watch a talk, go to https/alpha.org/watch.

Followed by Discussion
Probably the most important part of any Alpha: the chance to share thoughts and ideas on the topic, and simply discuss it in a small group.  There's no obligation to say anything and there's nothing you can't say (seriously).  It's an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly and open environment.

The next Alpha at St Peter's which was to have started on 19th January 2022 has been cancelled. For upcoming courses in the Harrogate area visit alpha.org/try-alpha and search Find An Alpha In Your Area.
