MUST SEE PHOTOS 'See You at the Pole': American Students Gathered to Pray This Week

ABOVE: Powerful photos and videos from around the country. A HUGE thank you to everyone who contacted CBN News to help provide this amazing nationwide snapshot!

This year's "See You at the Pole" prayer rallies took place Wednesday, Sept. 25, with students gathering as early as 7:00 a.m. to pray around their school's flagpole. It's an event organized and led by students not only in the USA but around the world. 

According to the SYATP organization's website, it's just about one thing - prayer.  The theme for the event is a Bible verse found in the Old Testament - 2 Chronicles 7:14

"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

CBN News viewers overwhelmed us with amazing photos from prayer events. Here are some powerful images from the day:

The event is a part of the Global Week of Student Prayer held from Sept. 22 to Sept. 28. 

"See You at the Pole" has grown enormously since it came out of a prayer meeting among teenagers in Texas in 1990. Now it's estimated that each year, one million students from across the globe take part in SYATP on the fourth Wednesday in September.

Private or home school students also joined in the prayer activities in unique ways, places and times, with other events happening all during the week. Students were able to plan their local event using tools found on the SYATP website or via the app store on their Apple phone through the Campus Prayer App.
