Junio Bible Quiz (JBQ)- Regional Finals 2025.

We are overjoyed to share that on Saturday, April 27th, our children from UECF  participated in the Northeast Regionals, where teams from across New Jersey, Connecticut, Virginia, and Massachusetts came together in a spirit of learning, fellowship, and friendly competition.

By the abundant grace of God and His unwavering favor, both of our UECF teams delivered outstanding performances—once again securing the top two positions in the tournament, as has become a blessed tradition. This remarkable achievement stands as a powerful testament to the Lord’s faithfulness and the unwavering dedication, discipline, and spirit of excellence shown by our children.

Just a month ago, during the New Jersey District Finals, our kids faced a moment of disappointment, unable to perform to their full potential. But rather than being discouraged, they turned that experience into a powerful motivation to grow. With renewed determination, they committed themselves to diligent preparation, and the results at Regionals speak volumes about their hard work, resilience, and the strength they drew from their faith.

Let us take a moment to Thank our Heavenly Father for His guidance, for instilling perseverance in our children, and for surrounding them with supportive parents, mentors, and a church family that uplifts them in prayer and encouragement.

May this victory serve not only as a celebration of success, but also as a powerful reminder that, with God’s guidance, every setback can be transformed into a steppingstone toward something greater. As our children now set their sights on the National competition, scheduled for June 12th–14th in, Chicago, Illinois wherein over 80 teams from across the United States will be participating, let us continue to lift them up in prayer.

May the Lord bless them with continued growth in wisdom, confidence, and grace, and may His presence go before them in every step of their journey.

Here are our team’s rankings at the regional event

UECF Slingshot – Worshippers – 1^st place (6 Wins and 1 Loss)

(Aaron Vellore, Joshua Bollam and Shiloh David)

UECF Slingshot Warriors – 2^nd place (5 Wins and 2 Loss)

(Adarsh Gatala, Luke Dasari, Mayah Shaik and Rozion Kadari)
