Millions of people all over the world have now attended an Alpha course, an opportunity to explore the meaning of life, running in tens if thousands of churches of all denominations across the world.

Alpha is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions, with a day or weekend away. It is low-key, friendly and fun - and is supported by all the main Christian denominations.

The Ark Community Church will be working with 2 other local churches to run an Alpha course to be held at the events room, Garston Church, St Albans Road, Garston, Watford. There will be a launch evening on 4th October at 6.45pm-10pm ,with music by a local singer/songwriter and a four-course dinner. There will also be the chance to hear more about the national initiative, The Alpha Course. Tickets are £5 each or £8 for 2. This will be followed by a ten-week course Alpha course. For more details, please contact Sharon Oliver, on 01923 242587 or email office@thearkcc.org.
