Is this where faith finds its home in Gaborone? Right before you stands the Universal Church. This church isn’t just a building. It’s a testament to the deep-rooted Christianity that thrives in Botswana. Christianity found its way to Botswana in the mid-1870s, brought here by dedicated European missionaries. What truly set Botswana apart from its neighbors was the way Christianity spread. It wasn’t just about individual conversions. When the Dikgosi, the respected tribal chiefs, embraced this new faith, their people followed. This led to a swift and widespread adoption of Christianity across the region. Today, the Universal Church stands as a beacon of this faith, a place where the echoes of Botswana’s Christian heritage resonate.
