Christianity in Botswana

More than 70% of the population of Botswana is Christian. Most are members of the Roman Catholic Church, Seventh Day Adventist Church, Anglican, United Congregational Church of Southern Africa, the Methodist Church of Southern Africa, and African independent churches. Anglicans are part of the Church of the Province of Central Africa. The Roman Catholic Church includes about 5% of the nation's population.

The number of Pentecostal churches has been rising in the 21st century. Churchgoers participate in night prayers, evangelism and crusades. Midweek Bible study services are conducted in some churches. In these meetings, prayers are offered for the church, members, community, and leaders in the nation. Churches in Botswana include Pentecostal Protestant Church, Assemblies of God, Apostolic Faith Mission, Eloyi Christian Church, Pentecostal Holiness Church, Dutch Reformed Church in Botswana, Good News Ministries, Christ Embassy, Bible Life Ministries, Victory International Centre (VIC), Royal Assembly Ministries Int’l, First Love Church, and Winners Chapel International. The Eastern Orthodox Church and Serbian Orthodox Church[1] are present. Many of the churches are members of the Botswana Council of Churches.

The churches normally meet occasionally to worship together under the name Evangelical Fellowship of Botswana.[citation needed] This body is like an organization of churches and it is the voice of the church.
