Alpha
WHAT IS ALPHA?
Alpha is a fun dinner series followed by group conversations designed for those are interested in exploring life, spirituality, and faith through a Christian lens in a relaxed, non-judgmental environment. If you’re an atheist, skeptic, just curious about faith, or want to grow more we invite you to bring your thoughts to the discussion group and explore questions of life with new friends!
If you want to know more, we’d love to invite you to join us for the first week of Alpha, starting Thursday, April 3rd! It will be a fun evening where you can find out if Alpha is for you.
Please feel free to reach out to lucas.hampton@vineyardflorence.church if you have any questions!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
WELCOME – 6:30pm – 7PM – MINGLING AND DINNER
Join us for a free dinner, drinks, and dessert!
WATCH – 7:00 – 7:30PM WELCOME AND VIDEO
Each Alpha evening features a 25 minute film. Designed to inspire more questions than provide answers, these short films explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as Who is Jesus? and How can we have faith?
DISCUSS – 7:30 – 8PM – DISCUSS THE QUESTIONS THAT MATTER TO YOU
The entire night builds towards this peak experience: after the film, we’ll break into discussion groups where you can share your thoughts about faith and life and hear from others in your group. You can feel free to say whatever you like or as little as you like, it’s up to you.
