This Sunday 1st June

May 26, 2008

The Rev. Barry Woodward will be preaching this Sunday 1st June 2008

Barry Woodward was brought up in a great, but non-Christian home in Salford, Greater Manchester. At 16 he left school with no qualifications and was drawn into the Manchester drugs scene, taking cannabis, amphetamine and LSD. This led to a life of heroin addiction and drug dealing.

After being dependent on heroin for fourteen years and spending a number of terms in prison Barry had what he describes as ‘an encounter with God’, which resulted in his life being totally transformed. This was then followed by being called by God to be an evangelist. Since then he has worked with a number of evangelistic organizations and studied full time at Cliff Bible College, where he was awarded a Diploma in Biblical Studies and Evangelistic Ministry from Sheffield University.

Barry is an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God in the UK and an associate evangelist with J.John of the Philo Trust. He is also the author of ‘Once an Addict’. He and his wife Tina are members of The Bridge Church, and they live in Greater Manchester.
