No, he didn't meet with Stride at all. Stride died around 40 years ago. Al was summoned to the world 18 years ago.

Obviously he's suspicious, in that my personal opinion is that he's got the Authority of Pride, but isn't part of the Witch Cult (anymore if he ever was). But though it's possible he is affiliated somehow, we don't know that for sure.
