Association of Sierra Leonean Ministers in The Gambia (ASLEM) organised a farewell service in honour of the outgoing Sierra Leonean High Commissioner to The Gambia. ASLEM, a group of pastors from Sierra Leone in The Gambia bent on praying for leaders, prayed for their outgoing High Commissioner recently. This team has prayed, honoured, praised and gave touching gifts to HE Yumkella. Christian Panorama's anchorman, Austin Kanjiawas part of the history at the Trinity Methodist Church over the weekend as HE prepares to leave finally for Freetown to get into agriculture.
Rev. Charles Lewis said in his sermon that ASLEM's obligation was to pray for leaders. Addressing HE Yumkella, Rev. Charles says, "You are one person we admire so much. We recognise your effort and the impact you have made on this society. It could be recalled that through HE Yumkella, Sierra Leoneans were given gratis for Alien Card. He restored the prestige of all Sierra Leoneans in The Gambia and became a friend to many for the sake of a better Sierra Leone," Rev. Charles said.

He further said that the theme: "To everything there is a season" (Eccls 3: 1) was wonderful. In his sermon, he said nothing happens by accident, it all happens by season and we are in the word of change. Everything has its time, Rev. Charles said.

He said Sierra Leone went to war, that was war time and they will not go to war anymore, to the applauds of all in the church. He stressed for the change of attitude and for his countrymen to embrace each other. "We should stop tearing each other apart and love each other as God loves us," Rev. Charles said.

Talking about three Ps the first P stood for Patience: That no one should be in haste and quotes from Dr. Olloh, a late musician, "Watta wae na for you enor go run pass you." Abraham and his wife Sarah were patient and at old age they had a child. He urged people to manage their time well. The 2nd P he said was to Prioritise, we need to manage our time well and not to say 24 hours is not enough for one. And the last P he said for Position. If you force to go you may become miserable.

In his farewell speech in response to the tributes to him, HE Yumkella said Sierra Leoneans have potentials and all sorts of skills to move Sierra Leone ahead, citing ASLEM as one of the good examples of his country's potentials. "People could have paid tribute to me in the office but ASLEM made it possible for people to pray for me in a church." He said he came here to work for Sierra Leoneans and not party or sections.

He thanked James Minah, the former SLENU Chairman, Gambians and said the two countries are inseparable. He apologised for any mistakes he may have made. He says, "I am SLPP and I shall remain SLPP."
