WINDHOEK CITY OF MANY FACES

The charm of the City of Windhoek  lies in its harmonious blend of African and European cultures and the friendliness of its people. Since Independence came to the country on 21 March 1990, it has been characterised by a vitality born of a sense of freedom and pride in self.

Windhoek Is often described as one of the cleanest capitals in Africa and visitors are surprised that this city, considered to be part of deepest Africa, offers all modern amenities that conform to some of the world’s highest standards.  These include hotels, banks, post offices, gyms, libraries, museums, car hire companies, health facilities, railway transport, airlines and estate agencies amongst others.

A well-constructed and regularly maintained road network from Windhoek provides access to majority of towns, nature reserves, parks, safari lodges and tourist destinations in the country.  Public transport consists mainly of taxis, while a bus service provides transport to and from residential areas.

Join us as we let scripture guide our prayers for the city of Windhoek:
  • Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper. Jeremiah 29:7 
  • Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.  Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. Matthew 9:37-38 
  • Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on in Windhoek as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:9-10 
  • Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of Windhoek revere him. Psalm 33:8 
  • LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O LORD. Renew them in our day, in our time and our city make them known; in wrath remember mercy. Habakkuk 3:2
