GROWTH DISCIPLESHIP LIFE
Designed to specifically addresses one essential element of the Christian life, you work intensely toward transformational change in a particular area of your life,
as you become a more fully developed Christian disciple. We hope everyone will take these classes – or their equivalent – over the next few years.
At least one class in each category will be offered at least once every year or two. Aim for one class in a different category each semester.
ALPHA
Wednesdays, 6-8 p.m., Sept 19-Dec 19
Why am I here?
What is the meaning of life?
Is there more to life than this?
What relevance does Jesus have for our lives?
What happens when we die?
These are some of the questions we will explore together in Alpha. We will start with a meal together, followed by teaching and discussion.
If you have questions, or just need an opportunity to get to know people, come to a preview dinner on Sept. 19 to see if Alpha is for you.
