This year, 5,683 people tried Alpha in schools, churches and homes across Ireland.
More than half (3,205) were under the age of 18 as we witnessed record growth in Irish teenagers exploring faith through Alpha Youth.
We’ve been encouraging and equipping hundreds of schools, churches and mission-focused organisations to make Jesus’ last command our first priority.
Great things have happened, here are just some of the stories:
Keith’s Story
Despite appearing to have everything he could possibly want while being a professional athlete, Keith battled hidden struggles in his life — stemming from a troubled childhood — by turning to substances.
After his footballing career came to an end, he found himself alone, terrified and lost.
Brian & Ruth’s Story
After thirteen years of marriage, Brian and Ruth were living separate lives.
The Marriage Course helped them navigate their struggles and offered a framework to rekindle their relationship.
Next year will bring even greater opportunities to reach the people of Ireland with the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Here’s some of the things that we’re currently working on:
Creating new teaching resources for secondary schools
Developing regional networks of churches on mission
Training young leaders in effective evangelism
More targeted leadership, vision, & training events
Expanding our free training & resourcing opportunities for church leaders
