What People Are Saying

“I have never felt more accepted and loved than I did in Alpha. It was like I found hope again in my life.”

Kaylee

“One of the best experiences of my life. When I joined Alpha, I wasn’t sure what it was but what I found was special. I loved the videos, the small groups, and the laughter that bound it all together.”

Alex

I’m a Christian, and I’m also a seeker. I will never stop asking questions and thinking deeply. Alpha is a place where I know that I’m loved, where I can explore with others, and not be judged.”

Brooke

"I was raised to believe that only certain believers were condoned by God. The entry gates to heaven were mostly locked. I was never able to accept the exclusivity of this faith. The discussion facilitated on Alpha enabled everyone to express their ideas and doubts and ask their questions. I appreciated that.”
