For January 2026 we'll be running the Bible Course alongside The Bible Course at Franklyn Road. The participants from each course will gather and share a meal together each week before splitting off for their session. What a great way to meet people at different stages of the most exciting journey!

Alpha has provided over 1.5 million people in the UK alone (29m worldwide) with an opportunity to explore different aspects of the Christian faith and to discuss their questions in an informal and relaxed atmosphere.

Dinner and conversation is integral to the format of the Alpha course, to meet people and open up conversation.

For more encouragement, interviews and information, see alpha.org.uk or find it on YouTube.

Who is it for?
Lots of people can enjoy and benefit from coming to Alpha…

If you are new to the Christian faith or just starting to 'dip your toe in'

If your friends or family ask you about what you believe and you're never really sure what to tell them

If you've been a Christian for a long while but have never felt you could ask questions about your faith

If you're fairly new to church and want to get to know some more people

…then Alpha is for you!

No questions are off limits and no assumptions are made.

How do I find out about the next course?
To register your interest, please sign up.

The course begins with a 'no obligation' introductory session led by Lesley Mason, one of the Godalming Minster clergy team. During the evening there will be an opportunity to chat with those who have previously done Alpha.

There is no charge to join us at Alpha and all are welcome to come along and find out a bit more. If you have questions or would like to join the mailing list for any future courses, please email [email protected].
