President Koroma greets 2012 in prayer at Kabala

President Ernest Bai Koroma has arrived in Kabala and James was there to meet him, camera in hand.

He didn't greet 2012 with a lavish party and champaign filled glasses,

instead he welcomes the New Year surrounded by the people of the country in which he serves

and he began it in prayer.

Joining with those who had gathered to meet the New Year worshipping at the Holy Martyrs of Uganda Catholic Church in Kabala,

He opened the year,

in prayer for the remaining hurdles Sierra Leone continues to face and

in thanksgiving for the progresses made

What a wonderful way for a Head of State to start a New Year. Many blessings to you, President Koroma, to Sierra Leone and to all involved in Nazareth House Apostolate. God bless you all.
