See You at the Pole "Converge" is September 28 |
The following is an article written by First Priority Greater Birmingham President Greg Davis.
A small group of teens in Burleson, Texas started a movement in 1990 when they went to their school's flagpole and prayed for their friends, schools and leaders. Since that time, an entire generation of students in all parts of the world has met on the fourth Wednesday morning of September at their school's flagpole to participate in the annual See You at the Pole (SYATP) prayer emphasis. Students in greater Birmingham are a big part of this student led day of prayer with some 25,000 students participating annually.
"CONVERGE" is the emphasis of this year's SYATP and is taken from Matthew 18:20, which says "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them." In this passage we find Jesus teaching about how His followers should deal with disagreements with one another. The overall message of this passage is that the Lord will be there with us when we genuinely seek unity.
What a great lesson for our students to learn this month. When we as God's people join together for the purpose of unity, it draws His presence and blessing. To read more about this year's theme and to learn more about See You at the Pole, please click here.
