The Alpha Course.
Alpha is an 11-week exploration of the Christian faith.
Our Church (Hope Whangarei) is hosting a course at BOB Cafe, 29 Bank Street, Central Whangarei starting Wednesday May 3rd 6pm-8pm. The first night asks the question "Is there more to life than this?" We provide food for all who come. Then the course will run each Wednesday night for 10 weeks following 6pm-8pm.
We can provide child care for younger couples to attend.
It is free, unless you want to buy a coffee! We can only take 30 guests, so registrations are crucial.
If you want to know more, ring the Church office: 09-4381667 and speak with Colleen, or email her on colleen@hopewhangarei.nz
