Alpha at Home

Curious about faith? Join a series of group conversations that freely explore the basics of the Christian faith in an open, friendly environment. At each Alpha session, you'll watch a short video on a different question of faith – then you'll have the chance to share your thoughts and hear what others think, as part of a small group discussion. You can say anything you like, or nothing at all. Everyone's welcome, no matter your background or beliefs. Drinks and desserts are included; it's completely free and there's no pressure to come back. This is an 8 week IN PERSON course (with an additional session on Saturday 4 July), running at Mel and Simon's home in St. Albans (sign up for the exact location).

Alpha at the Pub

Ever wondered what life's actually about? Or what people mean when they talk about God… without it getting weird or awkward? Alpha is a series of relaxed, weekly conversations where you can explore big questions about life, meaning, relationships, stress, purpose - and yes, faith too - in a normal, open environment over food and drinks. Each week we'll watch a short talk that kicks off the conversation, then chat in small groups where you can say as much or as little as you want. Debate it, question it, disagree, laugh, or just listen - there's no pressure to perform or "get it right". It's a space for anyone who's curious, sceptical, unsure, spiritual-ish, or just up for something a bit different with good people and good conversation. No cost. No pressure. No awkward follow-up sales pitch. You can come once and decide it's not for you - totally fine. 6 weeks. At The Peahen Pub, in St Albans town centre. Everyone welcome.
