The next Alpha Course at Union Church starts on 21 April 2010.  Come and ask all your “questions of life” at Alpha. It is a low-key, friendly and fun way to explore the Christian faith. An Introductory Dinner will be held on 14 April 2010 (Wednesday), 7.30pm.  Sign up online for the introductory dinner and the course.

Millions of people all over the world have attended an Alpha Course. It is a 11-week practical introduction to the Christian Faith, and is a simple and effective way of presenting claims of the Christian Faith in a clear and non-threatening manner to people from all walks of life.

(Bear Grylls, featured in the video above and former United Kingdom Special Forces (SAS), climbed Mount Everest at age 23. When it comes to speaking about his faith, Bear says, "It's about having a relationship with the one who made the mountains I love." Bear is best known for his television series "Born Survivor" and "Man vs Wild." His show is one of the highest rated programs on Discovery worldwide.)
