NEW WAY AT A GLANCE
TESTIMONIALS

“I am a Kentucky native. I am 39 years old and have 2 children. I went to prison thinking I had to do everything on my own. I was angry with God and blamed him for my going to prison. I blamed God for “placing me behind those fences”. During the time I was in prison I started reading the Bible and thinking about my life. I was regretful for everything I had done wrong. It felt as if my lies stayed in my subconscious mind. I conversed with other people (Christians) who had already repented and were living Christian lives.... that’s when I realized that the Lord was knocking on the door of my heart. He was asking me to come to him. When I entered the transitional program at New Way and started attending regular Sunday services I immediately understood where I belonged in this world. I am so grateful to New Way for their Christian foundation which provided me the support I needed to get on the right path with God. It was the Lord who orchestrated my destiny to New Way and for that I am truly grateful. THANK YOU New Way for granting me this second Chapter in my life!!!”

“New Way Mississippi Transitional Program has been a tremendous blessing to me. I was incarcerated for 20 years and because of the services offered by New Way I was able to reduce my time in prison by 10 years. I was so happy when I found out that my application had been accepted by New Way. The staff is dedicated to helping those who just need a helping hand. They are very kind and considerate. The programs consist of family reunification, employment training, and life skills training. When I entered the program I was at a very low place in my life. Once I started working with the staff at New Way my self-esteem increased immensely and I now have hope for a new life...a better life than I had before incarceration. I’ve been given a second chance and I owe this opportunity to New Way Mississippi. THANK YOU New Way Mississippi for allowing me to be part of such a rewarding and vital program!!!”
