Are you taking part? I pray so!
From The Baptist Press:
SAN DIEGO (BP) – See You at the Pole is engaging parents in prayerwalking schools the weekends surrounding the Sept. 27 event to mobilize families in prayer year-round.
Organizers of the student-founded grassroots event have long hoped it would cement prayer as a daily family practice, spokesperson Doug Clark said.
“We have always been interested in having the moment of See You at the Pole move towards a movement of prayer,” Clark told Baptist Press. “We feel like that’s one of the most powerful legacies See You at the Pole can provide.”
Students across the U.S. and in several foreign countries will pray in groups at flag poles or other prominent sites on campuses at 7 a.m. local time Sept. 27. More Here
See You at the Pole is an annual gathering of thousands of Christian students at school flag poles, churches, and the Internet for the purposes of worship and prayer. The event began in 1990 in Burleson, Texas, when a group of teenagers gathered to pray for several schools.[1] It is now an international event; in 2005, over two million students in the U.S. participated, as well as students in Canada, Cote d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ecuador, Ghana, Guam, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Kenya, South Korea, Malaysia, Nigeria, Norway, Peru, Portugal, Scotland, Singapore and South Africa.[2][3]
