Alpha Course:

The churches of the Blue Mountains, including St. George's, offer the internationally recognized Alpha course several times a year. Alpha is a ten-week practical introduction to the basics of Christianity with loads of opportunity for debate and discussion. The style of Alpha is informal, friendly and non-pressured. Each week the participants meet for a meal and a talk, followed by small group discussions and interaction. Alpha originated over twenty years ago at Holy Trinity Brompton - an Anglican church in London, England. It is now running in many countries, in many different languages, and in Christian churches of many different denominations.  For the dates and locations of upcoming Alpha courses contact the church office or Anne Storey at (705) 444-1297.
