SEE YOU AT THE POLE
Wednesday, September 28
Students in grades six through twelve are encouraged to attend the See You at the Pole™ event at PVCA. The event begins at 7:20 AM at the flag pole in front of the school.
See You at the Pole™, the global day of student prayer, began in 1990 as a grass roots movement with ten students praying at their school. Twenty years later, millions pray on their campuses on the fourth Wednesday in September.
See You at the Pole™ is simply a prayer rally where students meet at the school flagpole before school to lift up their friends, families, teachers, school, and nation to God. See You at the Pole™ is a student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led event.
