In 2026, leaders, shepherds, and college students in Rwanda UBF devoted their hearts and time to an intensive study of the resurrection, seeking to renew their faith and mission. The conference was held from April 3–5, 2026 at Huye, Southern Province Rwanda UBF Headquarters, with a total of 51 coworkers in attendance. The theme was “The Glory of Jesus’ Resurrection,” and the key verses were 1 Corinthians 15:49, 58: “And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man… Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm… always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord.”

At the beginning of the conference, participants united in prayer: that all may memorize and believe the Gospel key verses; that all may accept and experience the power and glory of the resurrection; that all may dedicate themselves fully to the work of the Lord, especially in Bible study and Sunday worship; and that God may raise 12 new faithful and committed shepherds.

The conference messages, delivered by Pascal, Theophile, Dr. Luke, and Rodrigue, together with life testimonies shared by Joselyne, Uwineza, Habarurema, and Cyurinyana, centered on the power and significance of Christ’s resurrection and the believer’s calling to be His witness. Through teachings from Acts and 1 Corinthians 15, participants were encouraged to proclaim the Gospel boldly in the power of the Holy Spirit, recognizing the resurrection as the foundation of faith, the source of forgiveness, and the assurance of eternal life. The testimonies further revealed how the resurrection power of Christ brings real transformation, leading individuals from brokenness, hardship, ritualistic faith, and spiritual emptiness into lives of faith, purpose, courage, and service.

The Easter Bible Conference 2026 was a spiritually enriching and transformative gathering that deepened participants’ understanding of the death, power, and glory of Jesus’ resurrection. Through Bible study, fellowship, and testimonies, participants renewed their faith, embraced their mission, and committed themselves to the work of God. The conference reaffirmed that the resurrection is not only a theological truth but a living reality that transforms lives, restores hope, and empowers believers to serve God faithfully.
