Alpha Courses

Alpha Logo At St Peter and St Paul's Church we are very much committed to the Alpha principles and have been running successful courses for many years.

Our Alpha Courses have been held in a variety of settings - from people's homes, the Church building itself, and in a local pub!

Alpha is an exciting course for people who are seeking answers to questions relating to their belief. It's for those who need to discover what Christianity is all about in our modern world.

The courses are structured to help seekers learn at a pace that's right for them. Established members of the Church and new Christians alike present talks and testimonials on a range of subjects dealing with the Christian way of life. Overall, it's low key, friendly and fun!

If you would like to discover more about forthcoming courses in the Shepton Mallet area, please email us or use the form on the Contact Us page.
