Help raise £10,000 to support the work of TEN
To inspire everyone who loves walking and raising funds for TEN, we’ve set an ambitious challenge for 2021. Our plan is to encourage supporters to virtually walk, jog or cycle along the Via Egnatia— the ancient, Roman road constructed by Gnaeus Egnatius, the Roman proconsul of Macedonia in the 2nd century BC. Gnaeus, (pictured above) will be on hand throughout the challenge to spur you on and keep you on the straight and narrow! The 300-mile route starts from the port of Durrës, Albania, winds through North Macedonia and on to the port of Thessaloniki in Greece.
The whole Via Egnatia walk is divided into 10 stages covering 300 miles (equivalent to 600,000 steps!) along several stretches of the original paved highway. As one of the first Roman roads built outside of Italy, the Via Egnatia became the coast to coast route that linked the Adriatic with the Aegean and thereby avoiding the hazards of mountainous terrain and the alternative; a long, uncertain and perilous sea journey.

SOUP KITCHENS ARE SUPPLIED

For almost three decades Transform Europe Network has enabled its partners in Eastern Europe and the Balkans to bring food to the hungry. Lives continue to be changed. Despair keeps giving way to hope. The Gospel of the kingdom is proclaimed to the homeless, orphans and widows, the destitute and families of the terminally-ill. Thousands of people are fed.
Harvest for the Hungry is supported by the generous giving of UK churches and hundreds of individual supporters.
James Vaughton CEO introduces Transform Europe Network and explains how the vision of its founder Dave Foster and pioneer, Gary Cox continues to change countless lives today through a network of sixty national partners across Eastern Europe.

When James Vaughton was in the Balkans in the last couple of weeks he met lots of our partners. However there were also some unsung heroes. These are the people who support and work alongside our partners. Those who do not make the articles in our magazine or get much profile but who are so essential to the ministry. One of those James met was Eri. Eri works with Hervin Fushekati at Istl Albania. She helps us a TEN with various things. So please thank God for Eri and pray for her too!
Eri is an amazing unsung hero!! She works efficiently but with so much grace and humility. So honored to know this incredible leader 👏👏👏
It’s good to see Eri acknowledged
