If you are like many of us life is really, really busy. So busy, in fact, that we rarely have time to ponder, and to discuss with others, the most important questions about life and faith.
This was the original reason behind the decision to launch Alpha at Saint Alexis – to address that need and provide that time. Participating in Alpha has afforded many the opportunity to examine, and discuss, some of life’s toughest questions, like…
* Why am I here?
* What is my life’s purpose?
Alpha participants have reported that the program has helped them to deepen the appreciation of the relevance of Jesus Christ and the gift of the Holy Spirit in their lives. If you were not able to participate in this initial Alpha program, we will be launching another in the Fall so please watch for details here, in Mass, in the Bulletin, on the Website, and wherever else you get your Parish news. In the meantime, we want to continue to provide other opportunities for our people to share their faith journey with one another, much like Alpha has done.
In May, 2017, we decided to begin a program of small groups at Saint Alexis. Joining a Saint Alexis Small Group will allow you, your family members, friends, fellow parishioners, and neighbors to share your faith journey with one another. Small Groups now meet on Tuesdays at 9:00 a.m., Thursdays at 7:00 p.m., and on Saturdays at 8:30 a.m.
Groups meet weekly on our Parish campus and follow this format:
*90 minutes in duration
*Begin with light snacks and fellowship
*Open with prayer
*Watch a video that is consistent with Father Zywan’s message that week
*Participate in group discussion
We invite you to continue your journey with our Lord, and to share it with others, by joining a Small Group at Saint Alexis. If interested in becoming a part of one of these vibrant groups, please sign-up below.
