Hahah...you made me realize what was going on at the flagpole this morning!!

The flagpole is normally where the smokers/stoners hang out but this morning when I was driving to school I went passed and noticed the members of "Reality Check" (it's a Christian club in my school) were gathered around tehre praying, I was wondering why they were there.

I always miss the announcements in the morning (I have a first period spare) so i never know what's going on around the school anymore.

Yes I did. I was kinda dissapointed in it. There were 9 people in the firs shift... my shift. We werent really supposed to be in shifts but then we left because three guys prayed... and I would've just couldn't think of anything different to say. So we left at like 7:10 and I guess more people showed up at 7:15. So there were two shifts. One person said something to me about it so I felt like maybe I reached them. We're thinking about doing it every month.

What is this exactly? I noticed a few people holding hands around the flagpole as the bus passed by but had no idea what was going on.

It is when students and teachers gather around their school flagpole and pray to God for our nation and political leaders and anything else they want to.

I went! I was supposed to play guitar, but it was so cold out my G string broke(G string as in the guitar string that plays a G! lol), so I just lead some worship songs a cappella

Ours was nice.. over 20 people(which is more than usual).. we went around the circle and each said our own little prayer aloud. Now every Wednesday we meet in the one teacher's room for our 'Connections Cafe' meeting.

I went! Although...I didn't know what it was for at the time. But I prayed anywayz.... and there were free donuts and entertainment!

 

[big_ol_lineman]
