It started out innocently enough. Just a group of teenagers in Texas hanging out at their school to pray. They chose the flagpole as the meeting place in 1990.

This morning, all over the world, teenagers will gather for See You At The Pole and pray together.

Say what you want about the commercialization of the movement (complete with sales for lanyards and wristbands) or you can debate on whether or not it's truly "student-led" (yes, they have organizational packets with "strategies" available to pastors), but...

It may not be newsworthy (although 5 hard-hatted dignitaries putting shovels in dirt can be) but there's definitely something nice about 2.5 million teenagers in 20 countries gathering together to pray.
