You're invited! (Yes, you can bring a friend. In fact, bring ALL of them!)

Our FALL Alpha Course begins Sunday, September 7, 2008 at 6:00 PM, with a "Celebration Dinner and Course Kick-Off" to celebrate those who completed the previous Alpha Course, and to introduce new participants to the 10-weeks of small group discovery.

Then, beginning Wednesday, September 10, Alpha will meet for 10 sessions from 6:00 - 8:30 PM, through November 12.  Each session includes a Dinner, a talk, and small group discussion.  Childcare for children ages 12 and under is available to Course guests.
