Alpha 2025 has been an incredible journey so far—but the best is yet to come!
The Alpha Weekend Away is one of the most powerful and transformative parts of Alpha, and we want YOU to be there! It’s happening at Glentui Lodge from Friday 4 April to Sunday 6 April—a chance to step away from the distractions of life and dive deeper into what God is doing in your life.
This weekend is all about:
✅ Pressing pause – Taking a break from the usual routine to reflect and refocus
✅ Deepening faith – Exploring who the Holy Spirit is and how He moves in our lives
✅ Real conversations – Wrestling with life’s big questions in a safe, welcoming space
✅ Encountering God – Powerful moments of worship, prayer, and community
For so many people, this is the weekend where faith moves from being just an idea to something real and personal. It’s a time of renewal, encouragement, and new beginnings!
