Check out some lovely photos of how Ghanaians observe watch-night services to welcome 2020

Several churches in Ghana was filled to the brim as Christians trooped to watch-night services to welcome the Year 2020.

Most churches in the country saw high numbers of worshippers, with many Ghanaians, bidding farewell to the outgone year and praying for better things in the new year.

As is the tradition, most churches took advantage of the service to broadcast their vision and objectives for the new year to their members.

There was a generally charged atmosphere across the various churches, as the patrons of the watch-night services sang, danced and recited Psalms of praise to God for His protection throughout 2019.
