It was the only institution which remained on the ground with the people throughout the 1983-2005 civil war. It has been involved in peace processes at all levels since 1972. This article seeks to trace some of those activities and show the relevance of the Church to resolving the current conflict. Introduction The current conflict in South Sudan which began on 15th December 2013 and is now in its fourth year needs no introduction for readers of this august organ. Suffice it to say that in mid-2017, the single word that sums up the state of the nation is “fragmentation” or perhaps “splintering” as the United Nations (UN) puts it.1 No longer can the conflict be described as a power struggle between two political leaders or factions. -
