What is Alpha?
Alpha is a series of group conversations about various topics of Christianity and what faith looks like in different people’s lives. The best conversations are open, everyone’s thoughts are welcome, no matter your background or beliefs.
Alpha is a safe space, which means that you can decide whether to stay, go, share or just listen. We would love to see you.
The next Chinese Alpha at Union Church begins on 28 January, 2026. And the next English-language Alpha at Union Church begins on 15 April, 2026. We look forward to seeing you there!
If at any point, you decide Alpha is not for you, that’s not a problem. There’s no pressure nor follow up. While there is no charge for the course, donations for any food provided will be gratefully received.
