President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has lauded the Life Without Limbs Ministries for its interest in Liberia as the country continues on the path of development and renewal. The President spoke Tuesday at the Foreign Ministry when she met with Australian Pastor Nick Vujicic of Life Without Limbs International. Pastor Vujicic is regarded as an icon worldwide. He was born without limbs, but preaches the word of God and draws attention to the plight of the underprivileged. He has been sharing the word of God at various crusades in Monrovia under the theme "Liberia Awake". According to an Executive Mansion release, the Liberian leader commended Pastor Vujicic for his visit and described it as timely as Liberia works to overcome the adversities of the past. President Johnson Sirleaf applauded the Australian prelate for 'bringing consciousness to Liberia,' noting that his presence in Liberia could help strengthen young people in Liberia as they strive for success in their future endeavors. For his part, Pastor Vujicic said he looks forward to developing a relationship with Liberia and assured the President that Life Without Limbs will continue to pray for Liberia's continuous progress.

Nick stayed on the Africa Mercy
and spoke at our Community Meeting on Thursday night. Not only is he an inspiration to us all, but he is a very funny man. He told us many funny stories, one of which was about him hiding in the overhead luggage lockers on airplanes to give other passengers a fright. Olly
