CURRENT CAMPAIGN
Wellspring Appeal
The cost-of-living crisis is hitting many of our partners hard. Our partners are doing what they can to sustain their ministries. We want to bring them hope and you can help.
Walk the Balkans 2023 Challenge
We are walking 300 miles to raise money and to encourage you to pray for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Kosovo, where protestant Christians are a very small minority. Join us on our Walk the Balkans 2023 Challenge!
Church Partnerships
Building a meaningful partnership, rooted in relationship, between your church and one in the Balkans and Eastern Europe can be a fantastic way to actively play your part in God’s plan for the nations of Europe.
Volunteering
Volunteers make a real difference to people’s lives in Europe. From helping for a few hours in our office in Bristol to spending two weeks in Europe with one of our partners, we’d love to hear from you.
Here's a brief edit of our latest News@TEN - the travel edition!
James says thank you for supporting our Wellspring Appeal and explains a little bit more about Walk the Balkans 2023 Challenge, including how you can take part.
There's a TENteam update following a ladies' trip to Albania and a LAST CALL to join our TENteams trip to support a children's camp in Croatia THIS JULY!

Recently, we enjoyed a time of prayer and fellowship with one of our partners. When asked how we could pray for him, he began by asking that we pray for the challenges he and his family have faced in the past year as some personal support has been withdrawn.
Please pray with us to the God who owns the cattle on a thousand hills that this partner and many other dear friends will be sustained through very challenging times.

Next week, we will host our May online prayer meeting. We are delighted to have Alban Krasniqi join us as our guest speaker. Alban has been pioneering Youth For Christ Kosova for about a year now, so join us to hear from Alban about his work and how you can pray.
If you haven't joined one yet, our regular prayer meetings are a great way to connect with partners, supporters and the staff team to pray for God's work in Eastern Europe and the Balkans.
So if you would like to hear directly from our partners and pray with them and other TEN supporters, make sure you register in advance to join - click here: us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcpf-Cqpz8jHNO0NZ5BGXqrTrysYtnLl6YA
We look forward to seeing you! ... See MoreSee Less

We were delighted that our dear friends Tomislav Dobutovic (second left) and Ian Morris (right, on first photo) visited us at our TEN office last week. Tomislav and his wife, Lidija are based at Sarajevo Baptist Church in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where Tomislav leads the church. It was wonderful to hear more about how Tomislav came to pastor Sarajevo Baptist Church.
Ian Morris has been a supporter of TEN for many years. He is also our Country Champion for Bosnia and Herzegovina. Country Champions are volunteers who play a crucial role in TEN's work. They visit partners in the country they champion and share partner stories with us, churches and Christian groups, among many other things. Because we are a small staff team, Country Champions really help us better understand how our partners are doing. They are a blessing to both our partners and us!
Please pray for Tomislav and Lidija, Ian and Bosnia and Herzegovina. You can read about Tomislav and Lidija here: ten-uk.org/our-partners/tomislav-and-lidija-dobutovic/ ... See MoreSee Less

We are really grateful for all your prayers and donations to our Wellspring Appeal. Thank you so much!
Our appeal is all about standing with our partners through the cost-of-living crisis. Some of them have reported they are struggling to meet their own needs such as buying the basics or paying rents.
Please pray for our partners so they overflow with hope.

May God sustain you and thank you for all you are doing to stand with us.
