Alpha

Alpha is a practical 10-week introductory course to the Christian faith, suitable for spiritually searching people, new Christians, and seasoned Christians who want to get back to the basics.  It was designed and launched at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican Church in England, home of the Alpha program.  Check out the official world Alpha Headquarters to get lots of information on the history, organization, and impact of this wonderful Christian course.

The course is offered by many Christian denominations throughout the world. Course information in the Ottawa-Hull area can be found at the Ottawa Alpha Office. The Alpha Canada Office offers information on courses across Canada. Alpha is light-hearted and interesting, providing a non-threatening atmosphere for fellowship and learning.

Do you have a desire to see people come to faith in Jesus Christ?  Would you like to do it through the Alpha ministry?

St. George's offers Alpha courses throughout the year. By creating a safe place for people to come and ask their questions about Christianity, Alpha provides a way for seekers to explore the faith in a non-threatening way.

ALPHA NEEDS YOU!

The Alpha ministry needs people who can:

- pray faithfully

- prepare meals

- help in the kitchen

- lead worship

- lead small group discussions

You don't necessarily have to make a commitment for the entire length of a course, or for the next course, to be involved in some of these activities. Some involve only a couple of hours; others can be once a week for the ten weeks of the course.   Volunteers are available to explain the work involved, and to help you determine whether this ministry is right for you. If you're interested in helping, please contact David  and Minna via the church office.
