Students spend more than 35 hours a week at school, so much of their future is shaped there. The question is: Do you pray for our students and schools? Day of Prayer Over Students Across Alabama is Friday, March 27. Commit now to pray for students. First Priority will once again coordinate this prayer emphasis encouraged by the recent proclamation of Gov. Robert Bentley. CLICK HERE for all Day of Prayer resources.
Praying for the students in our area is not just a privilege…it’s a necessity. They face an enormous amount of peer pressure to become part of what is considered normal by the world’s standards. Without prayer, these students will not be able to stand against the insurmountable odds they will face from childhood until they leave this world. We invite you to join us in prayer on this important day. There are numerous ways to get involved! The following are just a few:
– Become a Prayer Zone Partner and encourage others in your church and community to do the same. Every time you pass a school, pray over the school and turn the School Zone into a Prayer Zone. We have static-cling prayer zone stickers available for purchase. These will remind you to make a school zone a prayer zone.
– Plan a 24-hour prayer vigil at your church.
– Plan a “Prayer Walk” around your local schools. You must receive permission from the school principal to do this.
– Contact the principals of your local schools to let them know that your church is praying for their schools. Ask for a list of faculty members so that your church can pray for each of them by name.

Commit now to join with other parents and concerned adults to pray over students, teachers, school administrators, support staff and schools on Friday, March 27. There is still time to make plans for a First Priority staff member to come speak to your church group about Day of Prayer and the different ways your church can get involved. E-mail us today at info@gofirstpriority.com to set-up a date and time. Be sure to check out the numerous resources available to help you, your church and community get involved.
