See You at the Pole "Wholehearted"
2023-09-27 07:00 - 08:00 | AL
See You at the Pole 2023 “Wholehearted,” the Annual Global Day of Student Prayer, is Wednesday, September 27. All around the globe, in every time zone, millions of students will meet at their school’s flagpole for a time of prayer for the 33rd Annual See You at the Pole (SYATP). SYATP is a student-initiated, student- organized and student-led event.

SYATP is about one simple thing – students in prayer. Before school, thousands of students locally meet at their school’s flagpole in prayer for their friends, families, school, city, state and nation. This year’s SYATP emphasis is “Wholehearted,” taken from Jeremiah 29:13 in the Bible.

First Priority will once again coordinate SYATP efforts for Greater Birmingham through: awareness – print, web, social media, TV and radio; students gathering at their school’s flagpole on the morning of September 27 to pray for their school, teachers, classmates, community, and our nation; and community rallies, planned by local First Priority student volunteers and adults, that will be held on the evening of September 27.
