Alpha. This class is an opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed, friendly setting. The Alpha course usually meets once per week for 10 weeks, and includes a one-day or weekend getaway. Each session, people enjoy great food, laughter and learning in a fun and friendly atmosphere where no question about life or God is seen as too simple or too hostile…questions like—is there a God? Why am I here? Where did I come from? Where am I going? For information, log on to http://www.alphausa.org or email Father Mike at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
