| Sts. Peter &
Paul Adopts Alpha
Facilitator:
Deacon Jerry Almedia
Alpha
is a ten-week opportunity to explore the validity and relevance
of the Christian faith for our lives today. It is a practical
introduction to the basics of Christianity with loads of
opportunity for debate and discussion. The style of Alpha
is informal, friendly and non-pressured - a style which
seems to be appreciated in Canadian culture.
Alpha
is enjoyed and appreciated as much by those who have never
set foot in a church as it is by those who once attended and
by the regular churchgoer. No matter what their background,
whether investigating Christianity for the first time or revisiting
their faith, participants get a lot out of an Alpha Course.
Each
week people meet together for a meal, a talk on topics such
as "Who is Jesus?", "Why Did Jesus Die?",
"How Can I be Sure of My Faith?", and "Does
God Still Heal Today?" , followed by small group interaction.
There is a day or weekend retreat midway through the course,
which focuses on the person and work of the Holy Spirit.
Churches
of every different type and background, including Anglican,
Baptist, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Methodist, Pentecostal,
Salvation Army, Free Church and House Churches are running
Alpha. Because Alpha covers the basics of Christianity all
churches provide the same material, making alterations only
to suit the local culture.
Alpha
originated at Holy Trinity Brompton - an Anglican church in
London, England over twenty years ago. The syllabus of the
course is contained in the Book "Questions of Life"
by Revd Nicky Gumbel.
