Alpha is a place to connect with other people who are open to exploring life, faith, and meaning. Each session includes a time to connect with others, hear a short talk on an element of the Christian faith, and then a chance for each person to share their own questions with the group.
Alpha at Pantano is a series of eleven sessions, and each week looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. The talks explore the big issues and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as Who is Jesus? and How can we have faith?

Our next FREE session will begin on Wednesday, August 17th 2022 from 6:30pm-8pm and be offered both on campus and online. *Dessert and childcare options available for on campus participants. Register here:

  Matthew 11:28-30 says, “Then Jesus said, ‘Come to Me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you. Let Me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.’”. We’ll be diving into what it means to rest in the Lord and what that might look like in our every-day lives. Resting in the Lord and trusting in Him as we keep our eyes on the finished work of the Cross.
  No purchased books are needed; we’ll be using our Bibles. Meeting in the Student Union Bldg. No additional Fee required, just the TMW registration fee.
• B. “Rooted”, Sue Monge and Kathy Schlitz facilitators
  Rooted isn’t simply a Bible study or a book. It is a small-group experience, where people practice 7 rhythms essential to a healthy relationship with Jesus. Individuals establish firm roots in the Truth of God’s Word through personal study then come together to discuss what they’re learning in a space where they are safe and known. Rooted is a ten-week course that introduces participants to foundational Christian beliefs, stories and spiritual rhythms for daily life. Workbooks include 5 devotional readings for each week and prompts for personal reflection on key experiences.
  *There is a $25 fee + TMW registration fee, which covers the cost of the workbook and on campus prayer and celebration events which are separate from TMW. Meeting in Discover Pantano room.

• C. “Genesis: God of Creation” – Jen Wilkin – Cynthi Knight & Leanne Ragel
  See How God Reveals Himself Through Scripture
  10 session class as we dive into Genesis 1-11. As God reveals Himself through Scripture, we can only begin to understand ourselves when we first glimpse the character, attributes, and promises of our Creator. We watch Him bring light after darkness, order after chaos, and rest after toil—all through the power of His Word.
  There is a $24.99 fee for the book and individual video access + the TMW registration fee. Cynthi and Leanne will order the book for you. You will need to pick up and pay for the book at the Gospel Supply on Broadway Meeting in Starting Point Room.
