Juba, 28 April 2025 – The Christian fellowship at the Bank of South Sudan (BoSS) held a special Easter prayer service on Monday, reflecting on the resurrection of Jesus Christ as told in the Gospel of Mark 16. The scripture recounts how women found Jesus’ tomb empty and were told He had risen.
In his sermon, Stehpen Jacob Lubani, who presided over the prayer, encouraged trust in God, noting that “God often removes obstacles before we arrive,” and emphasized the resurrection as the foundation of Christian faith. He also highlighted the role of women as the first witnesses to this event.
The BoSS acknowledged the significance of Easter in line with the Transitional Constitution of South Sudan, Article 8, amended, which guarantees that all religious groups are treated equally.
The prayer was attended by the Director General of Administration and Human Resources, David Manyuon Nak, affirming the institution’s commitment to honoring days set aside for spiritual observance, including Easter, which holds deep meaning for many in the Christian community.
