Mobilisation and Evangelism

In order to take the message of Christ to the least-reached in Botswana and around the world, we are currently focusing on the following areas:

Evangelism to Asian expatriate workers

As in many Southern African countries, people are arriving from Asia in huge numbers to work. Our hope is to be able to explain to them the gospel of Christ, which they might never have heard in their home country, and tell them of a God who has made not just the whole world, but a way of salvation too!

Mobilisation of Motswana mission workers

Whilst many people in Botswana attend churches, if the mission focus of the gospel both in and beyond the country is ignored, Christianity can become more like a form of entertainment or a spectator sport. Too few Motswana are being empowered and equipped to share their gifts for the sake of bringing the gospel to people who don't yet know Jesus.

SIM Botswana wants to serve the church by helping to mobilise local Christians into ministry in the nation and throughout the whole world.

Provision of Christian Resources

In Botswana, Christian literature is in short supply. A centre previously existed in Gaborone for this purpose, but was eventually closed. Many people have expressed a desire to see a bookshop, lending library and resource centre established in its place, and a visionary team is needed to bring this idea to life.

Prayers

Pray for the many expatriates from Asia who enter Botswana for employment or business to hear and respond to the gospel.

Ask God that more Motswana Christians would be able to answer His call to 'go to all nations' with His message.

Ask for all the resources needed to soon open a new Christian book shop, library and resource centre.

Ken & Gwen Baker have spent 40+ years engaged in mission work and adventures with God

Ken and Gwen Baker have retired after 43 years of faithful service with SIM — a life devoted to God, to their teammates, and to equipping others for ministry. They spent decades planting churches in West Africa, fostering intercultural ministry, and shaping mission training that continues to impact workers worldwide. As they step into a new season of life, their story serves as a powerful reminder of how God uses ordinary people, willing to follow his call, to build His church and transform lives.

In Carrie’s classroom, Jesus is shaping hearts and minds for his kingdom

When mission workers with young families leave their home country, a major concern is how their children will get on. While the parents are out serving, the kids need stability, education, and spiritual nurturing. That’s where teachers like Carrie come in. Originally from Kansas, Carrie now teaches at a mission school in Liberia, part of Dakar Academy in Senegal, shaping young hearts and minds for God’s kingdom.

What might God do in 2025?

As we step into 2025, there is a sense of excitement and expectancy among those serving in mission work worldwide. From remote villages to bustling cities, SIM’s Entity Directors are preparing for what lies ahead, trusting God to bring transformation and hope to unreached and underserved communities. To gain insight into their vision and prayers for the year, we spoke with leaders across the globe about their hopes, challenges, and how the global Christian community can pray and support their work.

How the local church in France adapts to secularism and a changing society

France is a country of contrasts: rich in history, arts, and culture. Yet, as French native Vincent, Head of Communications for SIM France/Belgium, explains, it is also a nation of deep spiritual need. Things are starting to change, though. There is a growing openness to faith and a pressing need for mission work.

Sadiku, the boy who ran again

In an outreach clinic on the outskirts of Kapsowar, Kenya, an SIM mission doctor met a young man whose life had been painfully altered by a tragic accident. The boy, Sadiku, was downcast, his once bright school uniform looking worse for wear. He had come to the clinic with his teacher, carrying more than just the weight of his injury.
