Join us for Alpha

If you are exploring the Christian faith, returning to God, or just needing a refresher on the basics of Christianity, then we would like to invite you to Alpha.

Alpha runs over 6 weeks and is a safe place to explore life, the Christian faith, ask questions and share your point of view. Each session includes a short video, open discussion and a time to chat over food.

Our next course will begin in on the 22nd February at 8 Park Rd, Cheltenham. If you miss the first session, that's okay! You can join anytime.

If you think Alpha is for you or you’d like to invite a friend to join in with you doing the Alpha course, please fill out the form below.

I participated in Alpha last year, it is a safe space to meet people, learn and ask questions about the Christian faith as well as your own deeply skeptical questions. There was a lot of time and opportunity for open conversation, where I felt I not only learnt more about God’s character but about others journey through their faith. Every session, I left feeling inspired and encouraged to delve deeper into learning more about Jesus and the history of the Christian faith. Alpha to me was a crucial step on the path within my faith and something I would highly recommend.

I'm so glad I attended Alpha, it was a great opportunity to learn about the Christian faith.

I got so many questions answered about God and Jesus and also had many thought provoking moments.

I was able to meet a group of people that have been integral in my journey as I walk with God, and for this I'm grateful.

I came across Alpha at a time when I had been away from the church for quite a while and wasn’t entirely sure where I stood in my faith. From the very first week, I felt welcomed, and I’ve genuinely enjoyed coming back week after week. Alpha has given me the space to reflect, ask questions, and slowly rediscover my Christian faith without any pressure or judgment.

One of the most meaningful things for me is that, for the first time in over 10 years, I’ve picked up the Bible and started reading it again. That alone has been incredibly significant and something I didn’t expect when I first joined.

The community has been so supportive and encouraging. I’ve really appreciated the open discussions about Christianity and the opportunity to connect with like‑minded people who are all on their own journeys. Alpha has been a deeply positive and grounding experience for me, and I’m truly grateful to be part of such a caring and welcoming group.

Got questions about the Christian faith? We’d love to help you find out more!
