ROCK OF AGES
Listen, O heavens, and I will speak! Hear O earth, the words that I say! Let my teaching fall on you like rain; let my speech settle like dew, Let my words fall like rain on tender grass, like gentle showers on young plants. I will proclaim the name of the Lord; how glorious is our God! He is the ROCK; his deeds are perfect.
See You at the Pole
This morning was the «See You at the Pole™» event and Yellville-Summit had a group of young people show up at 7:00 a.m. to pray around the flagpole. There were several students that couldn›t make it to the 7:00 a.m. nationwide time of prayer, so the students had a second prayer time at 7:30 a.m. In a time of so many negative and tragic events taking place in our nation’s schools, let’s take this time to celebrate some positive. 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.
