See You At The Pole - First Priority of Alabama

See You at the Pole "Wholehearted" IS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27!

We would like to invite you to join the tens of thousands of students in our area and millions world-wide on Wednesday, Sept. 27, 2023, as they participate in the 33rd annual See You at the Pole™ (SYATP).

SYATP is about one simple thing – STUDENTS in PRAYER. Before school, students will meet at their school’s flagpole to pray for their friends, families, teachers, school, city, state and nation to God. SYATP is a student-initiated, student-organized and student-led event. This year's SYATP theme is "Wholehearted" and the scripture verse is Jeremiah 29:13 - "If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me."

“This year’s theme is very convicting and serves as a reminder that God wants our full commitment. Jesus made us His first priority when He died on the cross for us, and He deserves our sincere devotion.” said First Priority Greater Birmingham Ministry Director Debi DeBoer. “When our hearts are divided, we become less effective in sharing the hope of Christ with those around us.”
