“See You at the Pole” This Wednesday (Sept. 24th)

Now in its 18th year, “See you at the Pole” is an annual event to “bring students to their school flagpoles to intercede for their leaders, schools, and families, asking God to bring moral and spiritual awakening to their campuses and countries.” Students all across America gather at their school flagpoles to pray for our nation.

We’re blessed that we live in a country in which we have the freedom to exercise our religious rights. We should take advantage of this freedom that so many in other countries don’t enjoy. While Christians in other countries must practice their faith in hiding or risk imprisonment and even death, we can practice ours freely.

IFI wants to encourage you students to join together with other students who love Christ to pray for your friends, your classmates, your teachers, your families, our soldiers, our country, and those in other countries who suffer unimaginable persecution for Christ.

Remember Jesus’ words:

“Where two or three are gathered together in my Name,
there am I in the midst of them.”
(Matt.18:20)

IFI realizes that for many of you in many communities, participation in this event takes courage. Taking your faith seriously and acting on your faith in such a public way is wildly countercultural. But God will honor your countercultural acts and answer your prayers.

And know that while you are praying at the pole, your parents, pastors, and priest will be praying for you.
