An Alpha session lasts roughly 2 hours. You come for a meal, watch a short video, and share your thoughts on the talk with your small group who you will meet at the first session.
During the discussion portion of the session, you can ask your small group any questions you want. Your session host will ensure the discussion ends on time.
Alpha usually lasts 8-10 weeks with a weekend away in the middle.
Great news! Alpha is free. There will be a retreat in the middle of Alpha that will have a cost per person.
Most people come to Alpha without knowing anybody else on the course. By the end of the course, most people become good friends. Alpha is a great way to meet new people!
No! You may remain silent if you wish.
It doesn't matter if you missed the first week of Alpha - you can catch up. Anyone is able to register until week 3; after that we would encourage you to check back on this website and sign up for our next Alpha course, and start from week 1.
