FALL ALPHA SESSION

Connection All sessions start with a time of connection - over a meal to relax and build friendships

Content The ALPHA talks are designed to engage people from all walks of life and inspire conversation. They explore the big issues of life and faith and unpack the basics of Christian belief, addressing questions like "Who is Jesus", "Why and how do I pray?", and "How does God guide us?"

Conversation One of the most important parts of any ALPHA is the chance to share thoughts and ideas on the topic in a small group format. Guests hear from others and have an opportunity to contribute/share in a jusdgement free environment.

Families of Nazareth

Families of Nazareth is always open to new members who desire to cultivate and expand their interior life and for those who want a deeper conversion of the heart. Inspired by the Gospel, we try to imitate Jesus, who lived thirty years of His earthly life being educated by His Mother and St. Joseph as part of the Holy Family in Nazareth. Our Families of Nazareth formation groups meet on Wednesdays from 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. We learn to listen to the voice of God as He speaks to us in many ways through Scripture, encyclicals, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, early Church fathers, silence, prayer and spiritual readings. Retreats are also held several times throughout the year.

Natural Family Planning

This groups assist with resources on NFP, which is methods to achieve or postpone pregnancy through the observation of the naturally occurring signs and symptoms of the fertile and infertile phases of a woman's menstrual cycle.
