TRANSFORMED : A Ministry for Ex-Offenders

Transformed is a ministry that initially started in Brixton, London, and has recently begun a branch here in Southampton. Run by people who have themselves experienced amazing transformation through Jesus Christ, Transformed not only seeks to support ex-offenders who have made a decision to follow Jesus, but also aims to reach out to those who are in darkness and show them the light that comes from turning to Him.



There are a number of ways in which Transformed is seeking to serve the citywide church in Southampton:

1. Monthly Transformed Meetings
Last Saturday of month : 7-9pm : Central Baptist Church, Devonshire Rd, SO15 2GY
A meeting full of testimonies from all walks of life including ex-offenders, who will be sharing the transformation that Jesus has brought about in their lives. Bring others and come and be challenged and inspired. For more information contact Noel on noelmcnamee7@yahoo.co.uk or 07939 349630.

2. Information and training about mentoring ex-offenders within your church
Transformed can offer information and advice about mentoring ex-offenders within your local church. Contact Noel (noelmcnamee7@yahoo.co.uk) or Brian (thedooruk@btconnect.com) for more information on 023 8023 0950.

3. A website full of testimonies
Transformed have a website containing video and written testimonies of many men and women from difficult backgrounds who have experienced the transforming power of Jesus turning their lives around. These testimonies are a great resource for evangelism and encouragement, and Transformed have made them available as free google downloads. Take a look for yourself at http://transformed.org.uk
