ALPHA Workshops (twice a year)
People attend Alpha courses for a wide variety of reasons. Some want to investigate if God exists or if there is any point to life, others may have attended church on and off their whole life but never understood the basics of the Christian faith. Everyone comes with the same objective: to determine whether Jesus Christ has any relevance for their lives. We run the Alpha program twice a year. We are always seeking volunteers within the following areas:
Small Group Leaders, Small Group Helpers, Kitchen coordination and cooking, Room set up and break down, Serving meals, Washing linens, Setting up the tables…
