Isn't it wonderful to see churches bringing light into dark situations. A church in Tirana, Albania, led by TEN partner Erion Cuni has provided practical support to people through the provision of food parcels. This year, the church also welcomed two women who find them through searching for help on the internet.

Last year, we were able to provide the church with a grant from Harvest for the Hungry donations, so thank you for your support. You have helped this church to bring light and hope.

Our guest of honour,

Mama Zhivka, a Christian who is part of the local church in the remote Roma village of Slatina, Bulgaria is a beacon of hope to the community as she cooks and serves up bowls of hot soup for people, particularly the children.

Thanks to a grant from donations to our Harvest for the Hungry appeal, Mission Possible Bulgaria were able to purchase ingredients for the soup kitchen from the start of the year until the middle of April.

There is a real need in this community for help with food provision, as many of the residents face a lack of stable employment. The work available to them is seasonal, so providing for their families throughout the year is tough. The church in Slatina not only provides practical help but offers spiritual encouragement through believers visiting homes and sharing the gospel.

Mama Zhivka, a Chris

Evangelical Protestant Church Shishmantsi is a Roma church in Bulgaria which our partner Nikola Atanasov oversees. With a grant provided through your donations to Harvest for the Hungry, they purchased food to make up forty packages and went into the community to share practical love.

Church members visited local people experiencing poverty who as yet, don't know Christ, so that they would be helped with food provision and there might be the opportunity to tell them about Jesus Christ. Many people were taken by surprise by the church's kindness to them.
