Church

Church of the Harvest was started in Selebi-Phikwe, town centre in July of 2007, where Robert & Mary now reside. This church was started from an evangelistic outreach held in the most poverty stricken area of the city. Most of our congregation has been saved in the last year, some have been delivered from demons and many have experienced the healing power of God. The core group is maturing & growing. There is a hunger and thirst for more of the Lord among us. We have been blessed that we now have some solid interpreters, people have been trained for children’s ministry, and some in the congregation are beginning to lead meetings.

In March of 2009 a second church was planted in an area of the city called Botshabelo. This area is reported to be 57% HIV Positive among pregnant women, is very poverty stricken and the crime rate is very high. The average life expectancy here in Botswana nation wide is 34-37 years of age depending on informational sources. With people dying at such early ages there is a real sense of urgency to reach the lost with the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe the church is the hub of life and that God will use it to extend the Gospel to other nations! We need your prayers! Selebi-Phikwe is an area known to be surrounded by witchcraft and the spiritual battle is very real.
