It only takes one Alpha Youth course and one circle of students to participate in the 2025 Alpha Youth Citywide launching the first week of March.

A Citywide Alpha is a group of churches doing Alpha together, running a course in their own locations and then coming together as a large gathering for training and the one-day retreat.

We just launched the new Alpha Youth Series = this could be a great time to join! Check out the roadmap below and let us know if you have any questions.

The thanksgiving season is upon us and for starters, I'm thankful for you. I don't send you a ton of emails every year but when I do they are packed with goodness and you my friend actually read them! Thank you.

As the Body of Christ, we are called to make Jesus present in every age to all people.

But this isn't always easy. How do we overcome cultural barriers and our own limitations to share Jesus more powerfully and effectively with others?

❓What is a Citywide Alpha?

A citywide Alpha is a group of churches and organizations across the city of Chicago running Alpha at the same time, connected to a centralized support structure, practicing faithful presence in each of their respective locations, and engaged in prayer and solidarity toward sharing and demonstrating the love of Jesus together.
Each church/org will launch the week of September 16 and run Alpha on a day of the week that best suits their needs. Though each church will run their own course***, everyone will be synced and connected to one another. This group will pray, get trained, promote, invite, launch, share a retreat, and celebrate together.
