Rural Revival: A Greek Village Rebuilds Through Faith and Family

A small village in the mountains of central Greece is defying the odds against rural depopulation. Fourna, with just 180 residents, has seen its fortunes shift thanks to an unusual alliance between a schoolteacher and an Orthodox priest. Together, they launched a campaign to attract families, offering financial support and a fresh start. The result? New families, a growing school, and a renewed sense of hope for a community once on the brink of extinction.
