60TH INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATIONS | COMBINED CHURCH SERVICE πŸ‡§πŸ‡Ό

The Selebi Phikwe community gathered at the Apostolic Faith Mission Church for a Combined Church Service in commemoration of Botswana’s 60th Independence Anniversary.

The service brought together Christians from different denominations in prayer, worship and reflection, highlighting the important role of faith and unity in building a resilient and prosperous nation.

Speaking at the service, His Worship the Mayor, Hon. Oageng Makgosa, encouraged the community to embrace unity, strengthen relationships and uphold strong moral values as they work together towards building a stronger Selebi Phikwe community.

The Chairman of the Ministerial Fraternal and Pastor at UCCSA, Pastor T. Disang, commended leaders for recognising the important role of the church in building a resilient nation. He called on churches to continue coming together in worship, prayer and fellowship.

Pastor Disang further encouraged the church and community to remain strong and resilient despite life’s challenges, reminding the congregation to seek God’s guidance through prayer, meditation and faith.
