Alpha helps the parish to become an evangelising community.  Those who have experienced Alpha become evangelists inviting family, friends and work colleagues to come to the next course.

The structure of Alpha and the training available makes it easy for lay leaders to run the course.  Parishioner can be involved in evangelisation in a simple and effective way, even if they feel inexperienced or ill equipped.  Roles vary from hosting a small group, serving food, giving a talk, to being part of the welcoming team.

Parishes around the world have seen significant growth in the numbers and missionary zeal.  New members of the parish having come to faith during Alpha frequently join the local parish activities and bring with them the freshness and joy of their renewed faith.

Come, Holy Spirit.
