Alpha

Alpha is a semester long course aimed at one goal, creating a safe space for people who don't know Jesus to bring their questions, thoughts and curiosity to the table. Over the course of ten weeks, guests and hosts will share meals, watch videos unpacking key questions of life, faith and God, and engage in meaningful group discussions. Alpha is a ministry rooted in Jesus' promise that those who seek will find, so we just want to create a space where people feel safe to seek!

Invite your friends to share a (FREE) meal together, hear a talk about the Christian faith, and then talk in small groups about our beliefs and thoughts on life, faith, and God. Oh, and there’s free childcare too!

WHO: Anyone curious about the Christian faith
WHEN: Wednesdays • 7 PM • Sep 11 - Nov 13
WHERE: The Heights Church
COST: FREE
DETAILS: Dinner and dessert are included

The gospel moves along the rails of relationships, and that means that there are people in your life that only you are positioned to reach with the love of Jesus! Think of people you know that aren’t believers, but are open to learning more. These are exactly the people Alpha was made for. Your role in all of this is to be the inviter! Don't just send people to Alpha, but bring them as your guest!

BRING YOUR ONE.

ATTEND ALPHA COURSE

If you’ve been hearing about Alpha and wondering what all the buzz us about, this is the perfect chance to come learn what Alpha is all about! Alpha is a program aimed at creating an environment for us as a church to invite those in our circle who have questions about life, faith, and God to come encounter Jesus and His people. Alpha PREVIEW Night on September 4 is a chance for us as a church to experience what an Alpha session is like, and to pray and intercede for the people in our lives we want to bring to Alpha! 

ATTEND ALPHA PREVIEW NIGHT

Alpha runs in cafes, churches, universities, homes - you name it. If it is a place that people can gather, you can run an Alpha group! No two Alpha groups look the same, however they generally have three key ingredients in common: food, a video, and good conversation.

Whether it's a group of friends gathered around a kitchen table, or a quick catch-up over coffee and cake, food has a way of bringing people together.  It's no different at Alpha. We start with food because it is a great way to encourage community and get to know each other. 

The videos/talks are created to engage and inspire conversation. Typically thirty minutes long, they can be given as a live talk or shown as a video.  It is designed to explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as "Who Is Jesus?" and "How Can We Have Faith?"

The most important component of any Alpha is the chance to share thoughts and ideas on the topic, and simply discuss it in a small group. There is no obligation to say anything and there is no question or comment that is off limits. It is an opportunity to hear from others in all walks of life and to contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly, and open environment.
