What if we told you that for the next couple of months, you don’t have to worry about what’s for dinner on Tuesday night? We want you to take that night off and join us for Alpha, a program that features food, fellowship, and a better understanding of some of the basics of the Christian faith.

After we eat our dinner, we watch a short video and explore a variety of questions that many people have as they move along their journey of faith in an informal environment.

Our next upcoming Alpha session begins Tuesday, September 16th, at 6:00 PM in the St. Patrick Parish Center. Learn more and register at stpatrickyorkville.org/alpha.

If you've been to Alpha before, we're so glad you've continued your journey with us! Please note that this particular series is for new guests. We have opportunities coming up for our alumni and our parishioners, and we'd love for you to be part of those. Please look for details soon!

Alpha is BACK! We are so excited for our Fall session of Alpha to begin in just about 4 weeks!

No matter where you are in your faith journey, Alpha is for everyone! Invite your friends, family, and neighbors and join us for a series of weekly group sessions designed to look more deeply into life's big questions!

Alpha begins with a free delicious homemade meal, followed by a short video, and ends with meaningful discussions in an informal environment.

One of our past participants shared, "The Alpha program provided me with a structured & designated time to reflect and deepen my relationship with Jesus. Small group hosts made me feel so welcome and safe - our group had great, deep conversations."

We can't believe our Fall Alpha 2024 session has concluded! We miss you all and can't wait to see where God takes you next on your faith journey!

These photos are from the last few weeks where we discussed why and how we should tell others about Jesus, if God heals today, and the importance of Church and its community.

As always, the food was absolutely delicious. We are so grateful for our kitchen team who spend so much time creatively making dinner and desserts with many different themes, such as Cowboy Night, Hawaiian Luau, and a Pizza Party.

We also want to give a HUGE shout-out to our team of volunteers! Alpha wouldn't be what it is without you! We especially want to thank Evan for coordinating everything!

In just a few months, we will gather again for Spring Alpha 2024 which will begin on Tuesday, February 11th. We are also launching a Youth Alpha for high school students starting Monday, January 6th.

It's time for an update on how this session of Alpha has been going! Over the last few weeks, we have had thoughtful discussions with our groups on why and how we should read the Bible, how God guides us, who is the Holy Spirit, and how we can resist evil.

Our kitchen team has prepared amazing meals under the themes of Dia de los Mu***os, American food, and Pierogi Fest!

We can't believe there are only three weeks left of this session! What's been your favorite part so far?

We can't believe we are already almost halfway through this session of Alpha! These last two weeks we discussed how we can have faith, why we pray, and how we pray. Our kitchen team prepared delicious meals under the themes of Asian cuisine and a sports tailgate party.

We can't wait for the rest of this Alpha session!

Fall Alpha is in full swing! Over the last two weeks, our kitchen team prepared our favorite fall foods (like chicken and dumplings and pumpkin desserts 😋) and we had fun celebrating Oktoberfest! After watching the video of the week, each small group table discussed who is Jesus and why did he die? We can't wait to see everyone again on Tuesday!
