November 2019

Dear Alpha Friend,

It's almost November and that means one thing...TURKEY🍗!  Well, actually it means a few more things, and one of those is that it's nearing the end of your fall Alpha!  But wait, Alpha is just the beginning, not the end!  That true, so as this Alpha session closes, instead of asking "What's Next?" how about asking WHO:

* WHO on your team or in your church is going to keep connected with each of your Alpha guests? 

* WHO is going to support them, encourage them, and keep inviting them to be engaged?

* WHO is going to encourage them to invite their friends to your next Alpha?

Here are six ideas for ways to keep your guests connected, so now you just need to figure out the WHO, and make sure it's just the beginning of their journey!

Thank you again for all you do to share the Gospel through Alpha.  At Alpha, it’s very important to us that we never ask new guests to support the work because we would never want anyone to feel they are paying to receive the Gospel.  That being said, some of our best supporters are the men and women on local teams who are deeply passionate and committed to the work.

As we conclude this year’s fall Alphas and prepare to do still more good work in 2020, would you please invite your Alpha team members to prayerfully discern becoming a financial partner?  

For many, the contribution of their time and talent may be all they are called to give.  For some, God may be inviting us to make it possible for the next church to implement Alpha.  Thanks be to God for giving all of us a part to play!
