What is Alpha?

Alpha is a series of interactive sessions that freely explore the

basics of the Christian faith.
Who is Alpha for? Alpha is for anyone who's curious.
Each session involves food, a short talk and a discussion.
Its fun, relaxed and free, and you can ask anything you like (thats
why over 22.5 million people worldwide have already done Alpha).
