See You at the Pole

Today is that day when students gather around their flag pole and pray for their school. I remember when this all started. Our students were reluctant to begin with for this had never been done. I remember at one school, one lonely girl stood at her school's flag poled and prayed. She was laugh at but she stood firm. The next year several more joined her and then the next year more. Actually, a small revival broke out in that school. When we were in Mission Orientation in 1995 we asked people to join us around the flag pole to pray for our world. Do we need to pray for our schools, for our students, for our states, for our countries? I think you know that answer.
