The Youth Fellowship did not come about as a result of a concern about the gap that exists between the Sunday school group and other church organizations such as the WCA, GCA and Men’s Guild as most people want to believe. It was a response to what the Church viewed as evil practises among the youth, such as European dance, use of intoxicating drinks, gambling, etc. Youth organizations were started for the up building of character, the inculcating of moral and social responsibility and the combating of indolence, vice and crime among young people. More than anything else the reading of the Scriptures is encouraged.
