A worldwide phenomenon is coming to Noosa next month.
The Noosa Anglican Church is planning “Alpha”, a community program where people are given the opportunity to discuss questions that often get pushed aside in the busyness of life. These are the big first order questions about meaning and purpose.
Across Australia, 71,000 people were involved in Alpha last year.
Worldwide, in multiple church denominations and organisations, 27 million people have attended an Alpha program since its international launch in the UK in 1990.
Rev Chris Johnson, Senior Minister at Noosa Anglican Church said “The free program is for anyone who is wanting to have an honest conversation about life, faith, relationships and what it’s all about?”
“Everyone is welcome no matter their background or beliefs,” he said.
Each Alpha session starts with food, followed by a 30-minute video and discussion groups where no question is off limits, too simple, too hard, or too controversial.
An Information night, with a light meal, will be held at the Anglican Church 17 William St, Tewantin on Wednesday 5 October at 6pm.
Another Information night, with dessert, will be held at the Peregian Church, 40 Peregian Springs Drive, (St Andrew’s Anglican College) on Thursday 6 October at 7pm.
Alpha runs for 8 weeks Wednesday Nights at Tewantin and Thursday nights at Peregian. Further information is available at the website anglicanchurchnoosa.org
