Trudy Makepeace
Trudy Makepeace had a destructive 18-year battle with drug addiction and a downward spiral of crime, homelessness, prison and prostitution. Since coming to faith 15 years ago, she has managed a rehabilitation centre, ministered in prison and continues to share her story through teaching, equipping and preaching the gospel message in the UK and abroad. Based in Bristol, where she works as an outreach and evangelism minister for E5 Church, Trudy’s championing of the destitute and marginalised is powerful testimony to God’s power to transform even the most broken of lives.
