Whilst you’ve probably heard of
Alpha, you might not know that
there’s a course tailored for
young people called “Youth
Alpha.” Alpha is an amazing tool
for exploring the basics of our
faith.Millions of people have been
on the Alpha Course all over the
world, and we’re really excited to
be able to partner with them.It’s
more or less the same content,
but it’s adapted for a younger
crowd. Youth alpha can be run in
a church, a coffee shop or a
youth centre, but you can also do
it in your school. Some of our
groups have already started
running one, and we’e hearing
some great things!
One group running Youth Alpha
is the Christian Union at Andover
College. To build up for the
launch of the course in the end
of January they secured
themselves a stand at the
Christmas Fete back in December.
They had a questionnaire and a
sign saying“’If you could ask
God one question, what would it
be?!’. This got people’s attention,
and many approached the group
and started asking questions. It
was great advertising for the CU,
and also a way to invite people to
the Youth Alpha course.
After the launch of course, group
leader Vikki said“The Alpha
course is great, and around 14
people are steadily coming to it!
We’ve had a lot of interest and
the stall at the fete helped
loads!”.
If you’re interested in starting a
Youth Alpha course then you can
check out their website
www.youthalpha.org or simply
have a chat with anyone in the
NG Team about how your group
can get started and we’ll point
you in the right direction.
