A fellowship built on
faith & friendship.

Belonging begins with being together.

There is a place for you here.

Christ’s Little Band (CLB) is a lay fellowship within the Methodist Church Ghana. We are women and men, brothers and sisters in Christ, united by worship, mutual care, evangelism and service.

Our members gather in local society bands, connected through circuits and dioceses to the wider Connexion. This website shares the life and work of the Northern Accra Diocesan Band.

Formed from the Accra Diocesan Band, our Northern Accra fellowship was officially launched in January 2017 at Ebenezer Methodist Cathedral, Madina, according to our diocesan history. We carry that story forward through prayer, friendship and the living tradition of Ebibindwom.

BEFORE YOU TAKE THE NEXT STEP

Finding your
place here.

A few answers to help you get started.

Join the Band ↗
How do I join Christ’s Little Band?

Use “Join the Band” to share your first and last name, phone number and neighbourhood. Choose a society if you know one, or ask CLB to help you find a local contact. You review and send the enquiry from your email app.

What if my area or society is not listed?

You can still enquire. Choose “I don’t know / my area isn’t listed” and tell us where you live. CLB can contact you on the phone number you provide and recommend a suitable location.

How are societies and circuits connected?

A local CLB band belongs to a Methodist society. Societies are grouped within circuits, and the circuits form part of the diocese. The joining page offers the society suggestions currently available in our source archive.

Can I keep a prayer request private?

Yes. Private is the default. A request intended for public sharing needs your consent and CLB review before publication. Your email goes to the CLB mailbox; for a confidential pastoral conversation, ask for a minister before sharing sensitive details.

Where can I find meeting times and membership arrangements?

Your local society or circuit officers can confirm meeting times, joining arrangements and any contributions. These differ locally, so the website does not assume one schedule or fee for every society.

How can we share a circuit or diocesan announcement?

Email hello@christslittleband.org with the activity title, organising circuit or society, date, venue and a contact officer. CLB can review the details before a notice is added to the website.
