                              Global Alpha Training


With an assist interested in our city is developed, the “Global Alpha Training "that seeks to enable the monitors to continue the program that began in our diocese in 2009 with the first Alpha course. The day was led by a team of five Canadian coaches, who gave the guidelines, experience and motivation to the participants, who were able to train for a weekend in the work of the 10 sessions.


The Canadian team consisted of Carole Chobot, Dave Chobot, Carrie Osika, Ramona Rodych and Dennis Ziegler.


The initiative organized by the Diocese of Arica and executed by Parent and Juan Santiago Aburto Sharp is a course that gives an international level. The Alpha course is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in an open and non-intimidating through 10 weekly sessions that invite reflection. It's simple, cozy and fun, and the major Christian denominations have backed the course.


More than 10 million people worldwide have participated in an Alpha course in churches, homes, schools, workplaces, universities and prisons in our diocese.
