Rock Hard!

Reality Check 08 was a huge success with over 320 in attendance! Candlefuse rocked the house with their concert and then lead us into the presence of God with some amazing praise and worship. Our guest speaker, Marty Burroughs, challenged us to be real heroes in our world. At the altars, 18 made first tie commitments to Christ, 55 recommited their lives to Him, and 18 signed up to be Campus Missionaries!

We'll post some pictures in the next few days!

SYATP

See You at the Pole™ is a great place to connect with God, connect with other believers, and connect with your campus in the name of Christ.

SYATP connects believers together at the beginning of the school year, so you can stand strong together throughout the year.

See You at the Pole™ is all about prayer. It's about you coming together and laying aside all the labels and groups for one day, to simply connect with God in prayer and connect with fellow Christians in unity around the flag pole—whether jocks, preps, geeks, Methodists, Baptists, Catholics, sophomores, or seniors.

So are you ready to connect? Are you ready to say, Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening?

Join your generation Wednesday, September 24, at 7 a.m., GATHER at your school flagpole. PRAY for your school, friends, families, and world. CONNECT. Listen as He speaks to you.

SEE YOU AT THE POLE!
