Training AGAIN??!

Do we have to go through Alpha Training AGAIN if we've already gone through it once?

Alpha Training before each course is a bit like spring training before baseball season. Participation is not optional even for the skilled athletes. Why?

• We lose our skills if we don't practice.
  

• It takes a team to run Alpha. At Alpha Training we are not only honing our skills, we are also learning to work together as a team, and developing a team spirit.
  

• The new rookies on the team benefit from your experience.
  

Alpha Small groups can be very different from other small group experiences in the church. It's all too easy for us to fall back into our "church small group" default modes. And the stakes are high. Many guests arrive at Alpha unsure if they really want to be there. Surveys indicate that poorly trained leaders and helpers are a major cause of an unsuccessful Alpha Course.
