Our next series of Alpha dinners and conversations will begin September 9th and run for 10 weeks, including a weekend retreat at the Liebenzell Retreat Center on Schooley’s Mountain in central New Jersey (less than 2 hours away from Greenwich) from Friday, October 23rd to Sunday, October 25th.
First, join us for dinner on Wednesday, September 2nd at a local Greenwich restaurant as we kickoff the term with our Launch Night where you’ll get to meet new friends, ask questions and get a sense whether Alpha is for you -- with no strings attached.
Please use either button below to RSVP for the launch dinner or to sign up for Alpha Fall 2026. We are saving you a seat at both tables.
Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith over food and group conversations. Talks explore the big questions of life, spirituality, and faith from a Christian lens in a laid back and non-judgmental environment.
It’s for those who do not consider themselves Christians or for those who are rethinking their faith. If you are curious, skeptical, or just have questions, bring them to Alpha and explore them with new friends!
Alpha runs in cafés, churches, homes, parks — you name it. No two Alphas look the same, but they generally have three key things in common: food, a short video, and good conversation.
Whether it’s a group of friends gathered around a kitchen table, or a quick catch-up over coffee and cake, food has a way of bringing people together. It’s no different at Alpha. We start with food, because it’s a great way to encourage community and get to know each other.
The talks are played as a video and designed to engage and inspire conversation. They explore the big issues around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as “Who is Jesus?” and “How can we have faith?”
Probably the most important part of any Alpha: the chance to share thoughts and explore ideas on the topic, and simply discuss it in a small group. There’s no obligation to say anything. And there’s nothing you can’t say. It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly and open environment.
We are always looking for friends of Alpha to help run the course every term; whether with hosting, facilitating conversation, providing a meal, greeting and so on. If you are interested in helping and would like to learn more, please complete the short form at the link below.
