Alpha, Stay Curious.

We’re really excited to share that in January 2023 we’ll be running Alpha at St. Anselm in partnership with our dear friends at St. Edmund’s.

Thursday evenings (7:30pm) from January 19th at St. Anselm church hall. (UB3 4DF)

You’re invited.

You are invited to Alpha for a time of great food, even better conversation and talks that make you think.

If you come along, we won’t call you after, write, or ask you to pick up the cheque — the balls are completely in your court.

What have you got to lose?

What is Alpha?

Alpha is a place to explore the Christian faith in an easy and friendly environment.

There’s no cost, and no pressure. Just lots of great conversation and space to think.

Each session starts with food and a short talk. Then there’s plenty of time to share your thoughts.

There’s no follow up, charge, or pressure. No matter your background or beliefs, everyone’s welcome.
