In the small town of Willow Creek, a pentcostal upci church sat atop a hill, a beacon of hope and refuge for the people below. The story follows a young boy named Daniel, who, along with his little sister Lily, is taken in by Pastor James and the kind-hearted members of the community after losing their parents. Through his journey, Daniel comes to understand the five essential needs of life as he grows in faith and purpose. At first, Daniel struggles with physiological needs, as he and Lily are left homeless and hungry. The church opens its doors, offering them warm meals, a safe place to rest, and the love of a new family. As he settles in, Daniel faces his safety needs—the fear of an uncertain future. With the church’s support, he finds stability, attending school while the congregation helps provide clothes, medical care, and a secure place to call home. Over time, Daniel begins to experience love and belonging, forming deep friendships with other children in the church and building a bond with the pastor and his wife, who treat him like their own. Through youth groups and Sunday services, Daniel learns that he is never alone and that God’s love surrounds him. As he grows older, Daniel pursues his dreams, developing confidence and earning recognition for his hard work in school and service to the community. His esteem needs are met as he finds purpose in helping others, teaching younger children, and working hard to improve his life. Finally, Daniel reaches self-actualization when he realizes that his true calling is ministry. Inspired by Pastor James and the kindness of the church, he dedicates his life to serving others, preaching, and helping those in need—just as he was once helped. Through faith, love, and perseverance, Daniel’s journey through life’s greatest needs teaches him that God provides in every season and that true fulfillment comes not just from achieving success, but from using one’s gifts to uplift others.

Celebrating Our Special Bodies Our bodies are special—they can move and play, Waving hello, giving hugs, and smiling all day. Your arms can stretch wide to share love and cheer, Your hands can clap, tap, and give a high five, my dear! Expressing Through Movement Look at your fingers: wiggle them slow, one, two, three— Count them out loud and set your kind spirit free. Jump, twirl, or tiptoe, let your body sing, Every move you make can make your heart ring. Emphasizing Gentle Movements But listen very close—there’s something you must know: Our bodies are for gentle moves, not for causing woe. Hitting, slapping, or pushing can hurt a friend’s heart, It makes their body hurt and tears their happy world apart. Hands Are Not For Hitting Imagine if someone hit you—ouch, that would sting! So let’s promise together, in a gentle, steady ring: “Hands, arms, and feet are for love and fun, Not for hurting others—no, not one!” Recognizing Big Feelings Sometimes you feel angry, sad, or even a bit scared, Maybe someone takes your toy, and you feel unprepared. When big feelings start to rise, here’s what you can do: Take a deep breath—in… and out… let it flow right through. Self-Soothing Strategies Clap your hands gently, tap your feet with care, Or squeeze a soft pillow—let your worries clear. Press your hands together like you’re giving yourself a hug, Count slowly with your fingers—feel calm, safe, and snug. Positive Ways to Use Your Hands Your hands are perfect for waving a bright hello, For drawing pretty pictures or making a paper bow. They’re great for a high five when a friend does something neat, Or giving a gentle pat to show that love is sweet. Kind Alternatives for Upset Moments When you’re feeling upset, try these kind things instead: Open your arms for a warm hug or tap out a beat with your head. If your anger grows, count your fingers—one by one, Then take another deep breath until your storm is done.

I was born in the historically and culturally rich land of Lung Yeuk Tau. This is the home of the Tang family, with roots tracing back to the Song Dynasty royal lineage. From a young age, I was captivated by the ancient Chinese architecture here—the majestic Song Ling Tang Gong Hall, the peaceful Tin Hau Temple, and the well-preserved walled villages. The community of Lung Yeuk Tau exudes a strong sense of tradition. Every Lunar New Year’s Day, we sincerely pay homage to our ancestors, offering sacrifices at their altars. On the second day of the new year, we host a vegetarian feast to welcome distant relatives, celebrating the joy of family reunion. The decennial Tai Ping Ching Jiao is the highlight of our community—lively parades and bustling temple fairs reflect the rich culture of Lung Yeuk Tau. I especially enjoy strolling along the charming streets of the old and new villages. The rustic blue brick walls, the scattered houses, and the mysterious watchtowers all radiate the unique charm of ancient Chinese villages. Every time I pass by, I listen intently to the stories of the past and present, as if I can feel the wisdom and footprints of my ancestors. People say that Lung Yeuk Tau, just like its name suggests, is full of life and vitality—a place where dragons soar and tigers leap. It carries the historical memories of countless years while thriving with energy, where traditional culture and modern life coexist harmoniously. As a child of this land, I take pride in my heritage and am determined to preserve its unique cultural legacy, ensuring that this magical land endures forever.
