Easter is a special time of the year.
Chocolate eggs, time off to spend with friends and family but most importantly to remember and celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus.
Despite first appearances, the Easter story is a good news story. Easter is all about love, forgiveness and new life for everyone.
Jesus came to rescue and restore humanity and that’s worth celebrating.
There’s a Seat ‘At The Table’ with Alpha
We all have questions. ?We all have doubts. Does God exist?? Is heaven real? ?What is life all about? ?
Bring your doubts and your questions to the table. ?There’s a seat just for you at an Alpha Course near you.
