ALPHA CANADA
Alpha is an opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed, friendly setting. The Alpha course includes ten meals and an amazing Holy Spirit Weekend that comes halfway through the 10-week course. The course meets once per week. In Canada, over a quarter of a million people have now taken Alpha. There are 1,300 churches offering the course today from coast to coast and some 15,000 leaders have been trained at Alpha conferences in Canada. Hundreds more register each month as church leaders from all denominations report the astonishing impact the course has on non-churchgoers and existing Christians in their areas. And it's spreading fast to many secular locations - prisons, businesses and schools.
