The spirit of mission is alive and growing in the Diocese of Bathurst, with Alpha continuing to thrive as a vibrant way to invite people into conversation, community and encounter with Christ.

Across our parishes, Alpha has taken root in remarkable ways — from small groups in homes and parish halls, to gatherings in schools and beyond. Participants are rediscovering faith, building friendships and finding a renewed sense of belonging in the Church. As one participant recently shared, “Alpha helped me ask the questions I’d never dared ask — and I didn’t feel judged.”

To support this growing movement, the diocesan website will have a page dedicated to Alpha in our Diocese.

The special Alpha listings page will share:

• All currently running Alpha courses
• Their locations and times
• How to get involved

Whether you’re a long-time parishioner, someone returning to faith, or simply curious about what Alpha is all about, this new page will help you connect with a local Alpha group near you.
