On Wednesday, September 25, Balko National Honor Society hosted See You at the Pole. See You at the Pole began in 1990 as a grass roots movement with ten students praying at their school. Decades later, millions pray on their campuses on the fourth Wednesday in September.
See You at the Pole is a prayer rally where students meet at the school flagpole before school to lift up their friends, families, teachers, school, and nation to God. SYATP is a student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led event.
This year 90 students, staff, and community members gathered around Balko School's flagpole. Pastor James Epp gave the devotional. The theme for 2024 was "1st Pray," derived from First Timothy 2:1.
