Jehovah’s Witnesses “Pure Worship!” convention at the University of Botswana Sports Arena attracted a throng of believers

Jehovah’s Witnesses hosted their annual “Pure Worship!” convention at the University of Botswana Sports Arena over the last two weekends, drawing thousands from the local community to explore matters of faith and spirituality.
