Parish of Wonersh with Blackheath

To know Christ & to make Him known

Parish Alpha

Parish of Wonersh with Blackheath, near Guildford 

  

 

The Alpha Course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the basics of Christian faith; it was developed by Holy Trinity Brompton church in London.  Generally it runs for 10 weeks including a weekend day away. It is relaxed, non-threatening, low key, friendly and fun.   Each session begins with a light supper and a video talk, followed by a discussion in groups.  No previous knowledge of the Bible or experience of Christianity is needed.  Alpha is a place where no question is too simple or too hostile.  And it's supported by all the main Christian denominations. The course is also for Christians who wish to develop their personal faith.

 

 

There are no plans at the moment to hold a course in 2010, but watch this space.  Please contact us if you are interested, or have any other questions.  In the meanwhile try listening to the talks by HTB, linked below.

The last course started September 2008 with the "Taster" & Celebration Supper in Lawnsmead Hall.  This was an introductory evening when you could bring your friends, and find out more, before deciding whether or not to come. The course ran each Wednesday over three months, with one Saturday as an awayday.
