CURRENT CAMPAIGN
WinterHelp
Will you join those who give to TEN’s annual WinterHelp appeal? Each donation means so much to some of the poorest people in Eastern Europe and the Balkans and is a huge encouragement to TEN’s partners.
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.
Please continue to pray for all the rescue efforts and for the people of Turkey and Syria. Balkan Insight is providing regular updates.UPDATE | In less than 24 hours, Bosnian NGO Pomozi.ba collected 500 thousand Bosnian marks [250 thousand euros] for #earthquake victims in #Turkey and #Syria.

We are devastated to learn of the many thousands who have lost their lives in the earthquakes which have hit Turkey, affecting the southern and south-east provinces and causing devastation in neighbouring Syria. The reported death toll is expected to rise.
Our dear friend, Pastor Metin Mintaz and his family are safe but they have heard reports of friends who are trapped under rubble. Metin has told us, 'As the Union of Churches of Turkey, we established coordination in the region [of Malatya]' but speaking about another city affected, he urges us, '...please pray the Lord will do miracles. The Lord's miracles are much needed.'
Turkey is already experiencing severe weather conditions. Please pray that the Lord will do miracles in Turkey and Syria to save as many precious lives as possible. ... See MoreSee Less

Today our CEO James Vaughton was in Kotor, Montenegro 🇲🇪 with our partner Vladimir, meeting Srdjan and Ruth, who are church planting there.
In a nation with just 7 registered protestant churches, this is a significant moment in the life of the Montenegrin Church. Please pray for them.
Can you spot thr rainbow 🌈 over the town of Kotor?
