Through an interdenominational national network of over 8300 churches, which regularly conduct the Alpha Course, Christians are sharing their life changing experiences with inmates in our nations prisons & jails. Thank you for considering how you might follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in your life by becoming involved with us. Through Alpha USA and the local church we believe that fewer people will return to prison once released. I look forward to hearing from you as together we work to make our communities safer places in which to live while bringing glory to God.

I wonder because - my wife teaches part time at a preschool run at the Presbyterian church -

The Pastor invited a bunch of teachers and some parents for a meeting on - and to pass out information on "the Alpha Course". It struck me as ODD.
