What do People Say about ALPHA?
John Betz II
I will never forget the first night we walked in and were immediately greeted and welcomed like old friends. Everyone was so nice and interested in me. I couldn’t help but think WOW is this God reaching out to me? All I had to do is come home and he was there waiting for me.
Terri Hall
I was unprepared for the many challenges of my Christian life. This is what attracted me to Alpha. My desire to be who God created me to be, to bring others to Christ, to be united with my fellow parishioners. For me Alpha was the easiest and sure way to learn to live out the two most important commandments. Love God and Love your neighbor.

Alpha has rekindled a fire in my wife and I that has changed our lives. Not only is our Church life more vibrant but our relationship has grown stronger. Through Alpha we have become more involved in the church our of love for God and for the parish community. We pray more and read the Bible more. All of this because we encountered God through the Holy Spirit in Alpha.
