Spiritual Growth and Passion
This season was not just about competition—it was a transformational journey. The children’s passion for God’s Word has grown immensely. Many are now preparing to join the Championship League, aiming for Nationals next year—a first in UECF history.
Their joy in learning Scripture, their eagerness to serve, and their unity as a team have been a powerful testimony of God’s work in their lives.
Gratitude to Parents and Church
We extend our deepest thanks to the parents, whose sacrifices, encouragement, and steadfast support have been the backbone of this ministry. Your commitment has enabled our children to thrive spiritually and academically.

To God Be the Glory
As we look ahead with hope and excitement, we remain anchored in the truth that every victory, every lesson, and every moment of growth is by God’s Grace. May He continue to bless our children, guide their paths, and deepen their love for His Word.
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6

How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke your name into the night
Then through the darkness
Your loving kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Who could imagine so great a mercy?
What heart could fathom such boundless grace?
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
The king of kings calls me His own
Beautiful savior, I'm yours forever
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the roaring lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the roaring lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus, yours is the victory, whoa!
Jesus, yours is the victory, whoa!
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Oh God, you are my living hope
