Over 2 million people in the UK and 11 million worldwide have now attended an Alpha course. It is an opportunity to explore the meaning of life, running in tens of thousands of churches of all denominations across the world.

Alpha is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions, with a day or weekend away.

In Autumn 2010, The Bridge will be running an Alpha course at Praha Bar and Restaurant in the centre of Hinckley. Alpha will take place on Wednesday evenings with guests invited to arrive at 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start and the evening finishing at approx.  9-9.15pm. The course begins on Wednesday September 15th and finishes on Wednesday November 24th.

On the first evening complimentary food will be served at 7.45pm followed by a brief talk and then time for people to discuss issues raised and share their own views in small groups with other guests. On following evenings food will not be served, but guests are welcome to make use of Praha’s wide variety of hot and cold beverages and snacks from the bar.

This year Alpha will be led by the Bridge’s senior leader Tim Lea and new associate leader David Fletcher. Both Tim and David are passionate, yet down-to-earth Christians with a wide variety of complementary real life experiences and an enthusiasm for helping ordinary people to discover God in the midst of everyday life in modern society.

The address for Praha Bar and Restaurant is: PRAHA, 22-24 The Borough, Hinckley LE10 1NL
