Making More and Stronger Disciples of Jesus Christ

Alpha

 
 
A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE
 
ALPHA IS FOR ANYONE SEEKING SOMETHING MORE!
 
  WHAT IS ALPHA????????

Anyone interested in finding out more about the Christian faith.

Learning and laughter. It is possible to learn about the Christian faith and have fun at the same time.
 
Pasta and pudding. Eating a meal together gives people an opportunity to get to know each other.
 
Helping one another. The small groups give you a chance to discuss issues raised in the talks.
 
Ask anything. ALPHA is a place where no question is regarded as too simple or too hostile.


Who is ALPHA for?

ALPHA is for everyone. It particularly relates to:
 
· Those wanting to investigate Christianity

· Newcomers to the church

· New Christians

· Those who want to brush up on the basics

What’s involved?

The ALPHA course consists of dinner, 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 small groups and discuss any questions raised from the talk.  The Class meets for 10 weeks.  It also includes a special weekend, where the group meets in a "retreat" setting. 
 
When?  Where?
 
The next Alpha Course is currently being planned.     If you would like to sign up for Alpha, call the church office at 632-7387 or email at office@rockledgeumc.com.  You can also email the Alpha Director, Connie Maltby at dcmaltby@earthlink.net.
 
We would love to have you at ALPHA!  There is no cost to you and all materials are free!
 
The ALPHA Course has been taught all over the world in nearly every Christian denomination.  You can go to www.alphausa.org for more information.
