Alpha

What is Alpha?

Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith.  Each talk looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation.

Alpha is run all around the globe, and everyone's welcome.  It runs in cafés, churches, universities, homes—you name it.  No two Alphas look the same, but generally they have three key things in common:

food, a talk and good conversation!

Alpha at St. John's Church

Every year we run Alpha courses at St. John’s Church, Langdon Hills.

Please see the link above with a film series from Alpha to help you find out more.

Alpha is a really good way to investigate the Christian faith in a friendly and unpressurised environment.

This Spring, Breakfast Alpha will be running on Saturday mornings starting Sat 3rd May 9-11am. We will begin with a cooked breakfast, tea and coffee, followed by a DVD film on an aspect of the Christian faith followed by discussion in small groups. You can say anything you like or nothing at all. Much of the strength of Alpha lies in the friendships that are built and the open nature of the discussions where people are encouraged to ask questions and express their views.

  • Would you like the opportunity to explore some big questions about life and faith?
  • To get together with others who are asking similar things, to chat, to laugh, to build bonds that last , all in an informal and relaxed environment..... AND to eat together too?
  • If so we would really love to welcome you on Alpha.

Why not come to our Launch Event on Saturday 3rd May 2025, 9am -  The theme will be  ‘Is there more to life than this?'

Then the Alpha Course starts:  Saturday 10th May 2025, 9-11am for 10 weeks. Again, each session will start with a lovely Breakfast, tea and coffee.
Venue: St John's Church, Forest Glade, Langdon Hills, SS16 6RX
Bring: yourself and maybe a friend, an open mind and a good appetite!
