Three students and a teacher gather to pray at the school's flagpole -

“In a time like this when everything seems out of hand, a little prayer can be of much help.”
-Maria Rodriguez
Eighteen years ago, in 1990, some teens in Burleson, Texas, felt an urge to pray, so they went to three different schools and gathered at their flagpoles to pray. Since then, they have challenged other students to do the same at their school’s flagpole. The word spread quickly and now every fourth Wednesday of September students gather at 7 a.m. (or a time that will work for their school) around their school’s flagpole to pray.
On Wednesday, September 24, three students and a teacher gather at 7 a.m. at our school’s flagpole to pray. This was not a protest, they didn’t stand for or against anything, they simply took some time to gather and pray for their nation, their government, their school, their family and home, or simply any struggle they are facing in their lives.
For those of you who believe in prayer, don’t be afraid to act according to your beliefs. Next year this event will take place again at the same time and at the same place.
