Alpha in the Tove Valley
The Tove Valley Baptist Fellowship (as Towcester Baptist Church) was the first of many Churches to run Alpha courses in the area and over 4 years some 100+ people have attended courses which the Baptist Church has run. All ages and all backgrounds have taken part -- the youngest being 14 and the oldest nearly 90! People from all walks of life seem to enjoy it and the key thing is the enjoyment of listening, talking and eating together. If there are questions which you always wanted to ask but couldn’t find the right time or place, APLHA may be right for you.
