Hundreds Of Students Gather To Pray At The Pole

September 28, 2011

Hundreds of students gathered to pray at their schools in across the area Wednesday morning during the annual See You at the Pole event.

Students gathered as school began to pray in the non-denominational event. See You at the Pole is a student-initiated, student organized, and student-led event. Students prayed for their school, friends, teachers, government and the nation.

    This is something that we need to see more often…..GOD shouldn’t be taken out of our schools….that is what is wrong with them today.

    It was amazing to hear the voices of our students and teachers calling out to God for his wisdom and grace this morning. I am blessed to have had the opportunity hear their words.

    If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

    Praise the Lord for these students! It actually gave me chills to see the number of students who came out at EWMS and just kept coming until the end. These are our future leaders.

    Good Stuff. I think this is wonderful. I wonder what Mr Simon (ACLU) sez about all this. He would be doing good to sit down, and keep his mouth shut.

    It is so encouraging to know that this was a scene played out across our nation this morning. May God protect and bless our children and schools.
