All About GOOD SHEPHERD M.Y.F.
GOOD SHEPHERD Methodist Youth Fellowship is a member of the North Kaneshie Circuit of the Accra Diocesan Methodist Youth Fellowship. Activities of the fellowship are evenly and equally coordinated to benefit all members by a team of dedicated officers who are elected for a three year term of office.
Our membership strength stands at about 200. Our programmes are basically rotational, focusing on evangelism, outreaches, Bible studies, Prayer and Fasting, Musical Explosions, Fund raising, Seminars, Workshops, Anniversary and thanksgiving services.
Our overall objective is to win souls for Christ and make disciples of all nations. If you are a youth, and wish to fellowship with us, you are welcome to join us at any of our spirit filled meetings for a transformation of your life.
MOTTO & SALUTATION
The motto of the Fellowship is “WE WORK, WE WITNESS, WE WORSHIP”. The Salutation/Slogan is “WE - ONE!” indicating our oneness in Jesus Christ irrespective of social and economic background and to fulfill our Lord’s desire and prayer “that they may be one” - John 17:11.

THE YOUTH ANTHEM (Composed by Morag McDonald)
1. We are the backbone of the Church of Christ,
We are His Soldiers in the fight for life;
Come let us follow on where He doth lead;
Fellow, follow Jesus.
Lads and Lasses of MYF
Loud let victory songs resound,
We are the backbone of the Church of Christ,
Fellow, follow Jesus.
2. We’ll light a flaring touch to show the path
And help crippled ones to find the way.
Then all the inly blind will see the road,
See the road to Jesus.
Every foe will bow to our Lord
While we worship ,witness, work.
We are the backbone of the Church of Christ,
Fellow, follow Jesus.
