Care Groups
Every participant of UCF should have at least 10 caring friends in a small group that become the primary source for spiritual growth and ministry. We call these small groups "Care Groups". The small groups are committed to be places of prayer, opening God's Word, worship of God, encouragement, and reaching out to others around them.

Other Major Ministries
Mission Opportunities
Each year students are given various opportunities to engage the world around them for the kingdom of God. January 2016, Willow Valley Retirement is joining UCF for a multi-generational mission team to Barbados. Please pray for them as they serve.
Leadership Development
Every person has a gift or talent to develop that will influence others around them. Intentional training and development of these gifts along with Godly character will make you a useful person for God to use in His kingdom. While learning to become/becoming leaders in the vocational world around them, UCF participants have the opportunity to learn how to be spiritual leaders, what God expects of leaders in His kingdom, and how He specially equips us to lead.
Senior Commissioning
We honor those who have reached graduation with a personal blessing of prayer and commission as they move on to the next phase of life. A meal is held in their honor with graduates families and all members of UCF invited to attend. We then welcome God to speak a word of blessing upon their future. The graduate is given the challenge to "live out the call of God upon you, serving in the name of Jesus wherever you go."
