Alpha @ Praha Bar September - November 2010
This Autumn the Bridge will be hosting an Alpha course in the modern and understated surroundings of Praha bar and restaurant in the centre of Hinckley, Leicestershire.
Starting at 7.30pm on the evening of Wednesday 15th September at PRAHA and finishing at approximately 9.15pm. The Alpha course is a fantastic way for ordinary people from different walks of life to come together for ten evenings to explore the meaning of life and to feel free to ask in the company of understanding people, whether there is more to life than the weekly routines of work, shopping and family.
All people are welcome, whatever their beliefs, to join us at the Bridge this September to find out more about the meaning of life and the God that Christians throughout history have said loves us more than we can ever imagine. For more information see our Alpha page on this website (See link below) :
