What is the point of life ?
What happens when we die?
Is forgiveness possible ?
What relevance does Jesus have for our lives today ?

What is Alpha ?
The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith.

It's relaxed, non-threatening, low key, friendly and fun.

There is a meal together at the beginning of each session which gives you an opportunity to get to know each other.

Listen, learn, discuss and discover. And ask anything. Alpha is a place where no question is regarded as too simple or too hostile.

And it's supported by all the main Christian denominations.



What's involved ?
The Alpha course consists of a series of talks looking at topics such as "Who is Jesus?" and "Why and how do I pray?". After each talk we divide into smaller groups for a time of discussion.


Who is Alpha for ?
Alpha is for everyone. It particularly caters for:

  • Those wanting to investigate Christianity
  • New Christians
  • Newcomers to the church
  • Those who want to brush up on the basics.

What will it cost ?
There is no charge for the Alpha course, although you may be asked to make a contribution towards food.


Alpha Courses are held regularly at St. Andrews. Details of forthcoming courses are contained within the Events page.
