FPC Ministries
May 12, 2025
Join the Alpha Course at FPC This Fall 2025!
We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Alpha Course at FPC, starting Wednesday, September 3, and running through November 12. Join us from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the FPC Student Center, with free childcare available upon registration.
Why Alpha?
Alpha is a globally recognized program that began at Holy Trinity Brompton in the UK in 1977 and is now in over 100 countries and languages. Led by Pastor Nicky Gumbel since 1991, Alpha is one of the most powerful evangelistic tools today, offering a safe space for anyone—regardless of their faith journey—to explore life's big questions.
What to Expect
Each week, we share a meal, watch a video presentation, and have small group discussions. The videos present Christian beliefs and encourage open dialogue, allowing participants to express their thoughts without judgment or fear of wrong answers. It's an environment where the Holy Spirit guides conversations, and all are free to explore their faith journey.
A Call to Action: Invite Someone to Alpha
We're inviting you to play a vital role in someone else's faith journey. Think about a friend, family member, or colleague who could benefit from exploring faith in this warm, non-threatening setting. Your invitation could be a life-changing moment for them. Use the prayer card provided and look for invite cards around the start of the course to extend this opportunity to others.
Register Today!
This is your chance to engage in meaningful conversations, make connections, and grow in faith. Please register for Alpha and let us know if you'll need childcare. Flyers with additional information are available in the Mauzé Lobby to share with others.
For more questions or to express interest, contact Elizabeth Crites at 713-822-0222. Watch the video below to see highlights from last year's course and get inspired by the stories of transformation.
We can't wait to journey through faith with you and those you invite. See you at Alpha!
