What is Alpha?


Alpha is a 10 week, 1 session a week, course with a Saturday awayday in the middle. Each session begins with a meal where you get to know the other people on the course and those leading the group.
This is followed by a talk (either live or on DVD), and then a group discussion on the topic for the day.
Listen, learn, discuss and discover. Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile. You can ask any question.

It is supported by all the main Christian denominations.

St John's Church, Welling and Bishop Ridley Church, Falconwood run Alpha together


There is no charge for the Alpha course.

It's relaxed, non-threatening, low key, friendly and fun. The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith.
