We recently completed our second Alpha course of 2020 this term. 8 guests began the course and 6 completed it. Feedback from the guests was positive including comments like, “I feel more at peace”, “I made new friends”, “I feel more loved” and “it strengthened my faith”.
Three of the guests are considering the Discipleship Course as a follow up to Alpha and two are considering joining one of our small groups. Alpha continues to be a good starting point for those who are new to our church and/or want to explore the Christian faith in a friendly, non-threatening environment.
Thank you to those who have prayed for us. It was a joy to know that the Sunday evening prayer group and the Connect group were praying faithfully for us each week. We would also like to thank Katherine O’Neill and Kate Tremble for assisting us in leading the course and Rosemary Lindroth, Stephany Durack and Suzanne Saunders who served supper for us at our Holy Spirit afternoon. We thank God for his work among us and look forward to our next Alpha course in Term 2, 2021.
