As the last stop on a 5 nation tour of Africa, President George W Bush of the United States came to Liberia. The last sitting US president was Jimmy Carter in ’78. George W, Laura and Dr. Rice were hosted by HE President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf. Our founders, Don and Deyon Stephens and our Executive Director received invitations to the luncheon and took some photos. The day prior a group of us were asked to assist the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to deliver the invitations, but that was as close as I could get to the event.
