The Alpha Course
Alpha explores life and the Christian faith in a relaxed, informal setting. Come make friends and ask questions about life, faith and meaning. Each week we watch a short video, then have discussion in small groups.
Alpha is for anyone who wants to investigate Christianity. It is a free course looking at topics such as ‘Who is Jesus?’, ‘How do I have faith?’ and ‘Why read the Bible?’.
Where and when?
The next Alpha Course we’re holding will be at the Costa Coffee in the Newkirkgate Shopping Centre, Unit 8-9 St Anthony Pl, Leith, Edinburgh EH6 6AD.
Time: 6:00pm – 7:30pm.
Date: Wednesdays from 20th August.
