Alpha
What is Alpha?
Alpha is a series of conversations that explore God, faith, and life in a fun, non-judgmental, pressure-free and open environment. Each evening starts with dinner, a short video, then discussion in small groups.
Who is Alpha For?
Alpha is for everyone, but especially those that are curious, skeptical, hurt or just want to talk about real issues of life and faith. Whether you're just checking it out, new to faith, or coming back to church... you are invited. No question is out of bounds, and you are free to discuss as much or as little as you wish.
If Alpha is new to you, please come! If you have attended before, invite a friend and come again. Childcare is provided. There is no charge for Alpha, but donations are accepted towards the cost of dinner. Please join us for the first night, scheduled for February. Check this video out to see if it’s for you.
Please connect with Tawnya Fisher and Kathy Vannoy here!

Older Adult Technology Class
Join us for Older Adult Technology Class every Tuesday in February. We will meet in the Gathering Place at 1pm. This class is a way to learn new skills and bridge the technology gap between generations.
Series Topics:
Making Your Device Work For You - Bring along the devices that you use most often. We will go over how to change settings to make things easier to read and access. We will also talk about how to navigate devices (how to navigate between programs and close them out when finished with them).
Social Media and Atonement’s New Website - Together we will navigate different social media platforms, including Facebook and Youtube. With Facebook we will talk about how to change your password, downloading pictures, and putting on a new post. In addition, we will look at our new website design and find key features on it.
Cybersecurity - It’s no secret that phishing schemes and scams target individuals in the older generations. This week will talk about ways to look for those scams and what to do if something like this happens to you. In addition, we will also look at different tools that can be used to store usernames and passwords
Bring Your Questions - During week 3 we will decide on the topic (possible topics could include excel worksheets, fun/useful apps, or how to do an online library account). We will go over any final questions about the class.
