We’ll share a meal\, watch a short video that introduces a key topic of the Christian faith\, and then have relaxed\, honest conversation in small groups. There’s no pressure and no prerequisites—just a place to listen\, ask questions\, and explore. \nBeginning April 7th\, join us Tuesdays at 6:30 PM for eight weeks of dinner\, conversation\, and discovery. \nSign up to attendVideo about Alpha \n________________ \nCommon Questions:\nWho is Alpha for?Alpha is for seekers\, skeptics\, and those who are simply curious. Everyone has a welcome seat at the table for authentic conversation to discuss and dig into big questions about life. \nWhat happens at a typical Alpha evening?Each evening includes dinner\, a short video that explores a topic of the Christian faith\, and a relaxed small-group discussion where you can share your thoughts\, ask questions\, or simply listen. \nDo I have to talk during the discussion?You’re welcome to participate as much or as little as you like. This is a safe space to share or ask questions without judgment or shame. \nIs there a cost to attend?Dinner is provided and there is no cost to attend. \nDo I have to come every week?We encourage attending all eight weeks to get the most out of the experience\, but we understand that schedules can sometimes make that difficult. \nCan I bring a friend?Absolutely! Alpha is a great experience to attend with a friend. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Whether you’re experiencing deep joy\, quiet worry\, or ongoing disappointment\, you are not alone. SMACTalk is a place to find biblical encouragement and supportive community with women who understand this season. We meet the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. \nThis month our speaker is Terri Burnett. Terri is a seasoned leader with over 30 years of experience in both business and ministry. She has led corporate teams\, served in church leadership\, launched a consulting business\, and founded four nonprofits—including Women’s Nonprofit Alliance\, where she is CEO. Passionate about mentorship\, she equips women worldwide to pursue their God-given purpose. In her free time\, Terri enjoys traveling\, investing in friendships\, and spending time with her three sons and three grandchildren. \nShe will share how to love your children through life’s storms and difficult choices—while staying true to your calling and not losing yourself along the way. \n“Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.” – Romans 12:15\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
