News and events

Alpha is a welcoming, 10-week course designed to create a safe and open space where people can explore life’s biggest questions and the basics of the Christian faith. Through engaging video content and honest, judgment-free conversation, Alpha invites participants to share their thoughts, ask questions, and discover who Jesus is in a real and meaningful way. Used around the world and endorsed by The Salvation Army as a key outreach and evangelism tool, Alpha helps create a culture where people feel comfortable inviting friends and exploring faith together. Each session is relaxed and conversational, typically including a short teaching and time for discussion, where every perspective is valued and respected. Whether you’re new to church, returning after time away, or simply curious about faith, Alpha is for you. Program Details: Sundays during our 10:30 AM worship service April 19 – June 28, 2026 (10 weeks) No session on May 3 Come as you are. Bring your questions. Discover faith in a real and personal way.

This year, we are proudly celebrating 140 years of ministry and service in our community.
