Alpha gives everyone the opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed, friendly setting. The Alpha course will meet once a week for about 11 weeks at Holy Trinity Catholic Church. Sessions begin with a meal, followed by a short talk, and time to discuss the topic.
During the discussion, everyone is welcome to contribute their opinions and no question is considered hostile or too simple. Questions might include–Is there a God? Why am I here? Where did I come from? Where am I going?
Alpha is for everyone –Christians, Catholics, Believers and Non-Believers. No question is out of bounds and you are free to discuss as much or as little as you wish.
But I already go to church....
Great! However, there are some who attend church every week but have never had, or have lost their personal connection with God. Our hope is that many people will develop or deepen their relationship with Jesus; develop or enhance their prayer life; get more out of the Catholic Mass. One thing for sure with our Faith - we can never exhaust its riches and we can always deepen our relationship with God.
