Campaign

The Global Alpha Campaign is the most visible, widespread and exciting invitation in Canada for people to explore life, faith and God. It will include an advertising campaign featuring internationally recognized adventurer Bear Grylls and a coordinated effort by local churches to simultaneously run Alpha in 2016/2017.

Churches can choose whether to participate in a regional advertising campaign or simply run Alpha through their church. We are praying for thousands of Canadians to attend an Alpha in their community.

Alpha was the best thing I ever did! It helped answer some huge questions and to find a simple empowering faith in my life.

Bear Grylls

Alpha features real people with real stories as the face of our invitation. Bear is passionate about Alpha and having been a guest himself he knows what impact it can have on a person’s journey to faith. Through the campaign video and materials, Bear will challenge the perception of being a fearless outdoor adventurer by sharing an untold story of his inner adventure to faith.
