So what can I say about Alpha?

Alpha helped me through a difficult period in my life and saved me from repeating the same mistakes again.

I was born into faith but because of life situations I drifted away and became lost in the world, I’d been hurt and needed someone to help.

I joined Bethel and immediately fell in love with it but still had many doubts and questions.
During a service a talk about Alpha came up, I hadn’t a clue what it was but took an invitation handed to me, they said think of someone who needed it and invite them.
Well I tried to think of someone but the only person I could think of was myself so I invited myself!

I had so many questions about God, Jesus and faith and hoped that Alpha would give me some answers.

I turned up for the first session very nervous but was soon at ease as everyone was so friendly and the leaders were so knowledgeable.
We watched videos followed by discussions, opinions varied between people, but nobody judged or told people what they needed to believe or think.

Each week things became clearer for me, some sessions were very emotional and others were harder to understand, Alpha gave me time and the tools to sort through my emotions and get back to where I needed to be with my faith.

I would recommend Alpha to everyone, wherever it leads you, whatever questions you have, it will give you an amazing group of friends and allow you to have your questions answered.
P.S (there is cake)!!
