Methodist Youth Fellowship – a great blessing in my life

Shreya Daniel

During the end of my last year of school I was super occupied with studying, and getting into a good college was my only focus that I had even been avoiding going to church. But as I was really stressed, I had started falling sick very often. It was during this period in my life that I went to my first MYF camp. I actually didn’t really want to go since none of my friends were going but my parents thought it would be good for me so I went. It was at that camp that I realized how much I needed God and practically couldn’t function without him. It was soon after that that all my sickness had gone away! It was thanks to MYF that I could reconnect with God in a way that I hadn’t done before! MYF is such a safe haven for me where I could freely share my struggles and receive biblical advice which I found especially helpful. I still do stumble every now and then but that’s why we have a fellowship of people helping us along the way.

The Methodist Youth Fellowship has truly been a great blessing in my life! I never thought college would be any different from school but it was! It was hard adjusting at first but thanks to MYF and the session they conducted which were very relatable to the struggles I was facing I could overcome it. MYF gives opportunities to lead worship, Bible study and prayer which further deepened my relationship with God. Last but not the least prayer partners, people to hold you accountable, encourage you on a daily basis! This was really helpful in keeping me on the right track! Overall I’m very grateful for MYF!
