Spiritual Landscape in Botswana
While the gospel is known in Botswana, there is insufficient good teaching or discipleship and significant nominalism. There is also increasing secularism.
Please pray
- For Botswana SIM appointees who are developing prayer partners and raising support, that the Lord would lead them to the place he has prepared for them
- For more believers to hear the Lord’s calling into ministry of mission
- For local translators among the remote desert dwellers of the Kalahari, that they would persevere in their ministry without the support of expatriate mission workers
- For the work of examining shame/honour perspectives of biblical theology and applying them to strengthen a good understanding of God’s instructions
- For children and young people to grow in their faith and apply biblical truths in their daily lives
- For people bound by animistic traditions to be set free
- For theological training for many untrained pastors in various churches
- For new workers to join these opportunities
