Many parishes are looking for simple and effective ways to share the gospel with their local communities. Alpha is a great solution as it provides a welcoming space for people of all backgrounds to have conversations about faith. Alpha will help your parish to develop a culture of hospitality and listening, to grow in dependence upon the Holy Spirit and to empower your parishioners in their unique callings and giftings.

Even more importantly, Alpha helps people to discover what it means to become a disciple of Jesus, and to do so at their own pace.

We encourage you to invite your parish and diocesan leadership to this event.

“Through Alpha people are able to experience the joy of having faith, the joy of believing in God, and the joy of being able to walk with Jesus.” – Most Rev. Louis F. Kihneman, III, Bishop of the Diocese of Biloxi

God has been at work through Alpha this fall—and we want to celebrate all He’s done. Fall 2025 has been historic, with more Alpha courses run in a single season than ever before! Whether you saw lives transformed, teams strengthened, or guests taking new steps of faith, this gathering is a space to give thanks together and be encouraged for what’s ahead.

Bring a 60–90 second story or recap from your fall Alpha to share with others. Big or small, every story points to God’s goodness and the power of the gospel at work through Alpha.

You’ll leave refreshed, encouraged, and reminded that you’re part of something much bigger than your own Alpha.

Who’s it for: All Alpha leaders, hosts, helpers, and pastors who’ve run Alpha this fall

What to expect:

• Stories of life change and encouragement
• Time to connect and pray with other Alpha leaders
• A shared moment of gratitude for what God has done

Let’s celebrate together—because every story matters, and every Alpha counts!
