WHAT IS ALPHA?

Alpha is an evangelization tool, that began several decades ago in the Anglican Church and has been adopted and adapted by many branches of Christianity. The goal of Alpha is to help those who are marginally connected to the faith to form a relationship with Jesus and come to understand the basics of Christianity. This is accomplished through a series of videos and discussions that focus on different questions people have about faith and about life. We began Alpha at Assumption in 2019, and completed several courses before the COVID-19 shutdown. 

The Assumption Evangelization Team re-started Alpha in 2023, and have since completed three Alpha series!

Although aimed at those who are not regular churchgoers, anyone seeking to become more personally engaged as a disciple of Christ can benefit from Alpha. For more information, email alpha@assumption-chgo.org.
