See You At the Pole--Coming to a School Near You

This Wednesday, September 26, 2007, young people all around the world will gather at their school flagpoles to meet for prayer.

Not only is this a prayer meeting; but it is also an opportunity to witness to the whole school population about your relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ and your commitment to be His light in your school. "See You at The Pole" began in 1990 and has been a yearly event since then, giving students an opportunity to take a stand for the Lord at their school. Many young people have shared how being involved in this event has opened doors for sharing Christ with friends and teachers.

You can find out more information about this event and how you can even lead an event at your school at www.syatp.com.
