EXCEL was dedicated to the Lord at its conception. The name EXCEL was taken from Proverbs.

“Many daughters have done nobly but you EXCEL them all. Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain but a woman who fears the Lord, she will be praised.” - Proverbs 31:29-30.

We give God the glory for what He has done and what He will do in the future. Without the mercy, grace, power, and favor of God, EXCEL would not have come this far.

“Commit your works to the Lord and your plans will be established and succeed.”
- Proverbs 16:3
