The South Sudan UBF Autumn Bible Conference was held from October 16–18, 2026 at the Good Shepherd Conference Venue in Rajaf, Juba, with the theme “Live by Faith.” A total of 110 people attended, including 79 adults and 31 children, with 7 participants from Rumbek University in Lakes State. The main purpose of the conference was to exhort believers to hold on to the living hope in Christ, strengthen believers’ faith, encourage spiritual transformation, deepen their relationship with God, and inspire them to be effective instruments of God’s work on campus and in society. Preparation included four Saturdays of fasting and prayer with one heart and dedication.
 
 
Johnson Deng gave the opening message, “Living Hope.” Taban M. delivered the first main message, “Be Transformed in Jesus” (Romans 12:1-21), emphasizing the renewal of the mind, surrender to God, and genuine spiritual transformation. George M. gave the second main message, “Faith that Pleases God” (Hebrews 11:1-12), stressing trust in God, obedience, perseverance, courage, sacrifice, and dependence on Him. A special lecture from Ezekiel 34 addressed the responsibility of leaders and believers. Dr. Oyor Moses delivered the third message, “Here Am I, Send Me” (Isaiah 6:1-12), focusing on God’s holiness, sin, cleansing, and a proper response to God’s calling. God also raised three shepherd candidates: Awech, Garang, and Butros.
