Alpha - Fall 2026

  • Bernard Brown Community Center at Prosperity Center 629 North Market Street Frederick, MD, 21701 United States (map)

You are invited to our Fall Alpha Course!

We live in exciting but very busy and troubled times. We spend a lot of time doing many things but hardly have had enough time nor space to ask hard questions and have honest conversations.

Alpha is all about relationships and personal journeys surrounding life’s big questions. Alpha provides a friendly, open, and informal space for you to bring those questions with you and hear other people’s perspectives.   

There is no cost to attend including meals and materials for Alpha.  
Just give it a try and see what Alpha can offer! 

  • Alpha is run all over the globe and provides a friendly space for everyone to connect and explore the big questions of life and faith.  Everyone is welcome. No matter your backgrounds or beliefs, you are invited.

  • Every Alpha may be different from place to place, but generally Alpha has three key elements in common: food, film, and conversation.

    Connect

    Each session starts with time to eat and relax because it is a great way to connect and get to know each other.  Meal time is always fun and brings people together from all walks of life.

    Content

    At each session,  we watch about thirty minute long video. These Alpha episodes are designed to engage and spark conversation as exploring the big questions around faith and unpack the basics of Christianity.

    Conversation

    The last part of an Alpha is a chance to share your thoughts on the session’s topic and talk about it in your small groups. It’s an open and welcoming environment, no matter what your opinion. There’s no pressure to say anything, but the floor is yours if you do want to.

  • Alpha is for everyone, no matter your background or belief. Whether you’re struggling with faith,  new to exploring it, or simply open-minded and curious about it all, Alpha is for you.

    We all bring different thoughts and experiences to the table, and at Alpha we want to create a space where everyone’s opinion is heard and valued.

  • Have you ever asked yourself….

    • What is the meaning of life?

    • What is my purpose?

    • Why do bad things happen to good people?

    • Who is Jesus really?

    • Did Jesus come back to life?  Really?

    • What is the big deal about reading the Bible?

    • Does believing in God make any real difference?

    If any of these resonate with you, Alpha is for you!

    These and many more will come up throughout the Alpha course.

    • Tuesdays evenings,

      Sept. 15 - Dec 8
