Outgoing President John Mahama joined hundreds of Ghanaians at the Ringway Assemblies of God Sunday to usher in 2017.

He attended the service with outgoing First Lady, Lordina Mahama and their children.

2016 might have been a tumultuous year in Ghana's politics, but it could not stop Mr Mahama from appreciating the works of God.

He and his family exchanged goodwill messages with members of his church wishing all "Happy New Year."

The first family in prayer for the nation in 2017.

"Happy New Year First family!"
