This year’s See You At The Pole theme is “Come together: loving God, loving man.” There is great power in gathering together in prayer. When many pray, many have a chance to witness God’s power and have a chance for a closer fellowship both with God and with one another. So this year’s theme is a call for us to gather together once again and pray, hopefully through this we can see more people gathering in groups to pray. And it will not be an one off event.

The second part of the theme, expresses that we should not be an inward looking group. We need to gather together and pray but what we pray about should be upward and outward looking, not inward looking.

Have you heard of the ‘dead sea’ story? The ‘dead sea’ is located in the Mediterranean and is named ‘dead sea’ because the salt content is so high that nothing is able to live in it. This is because the sea has a source for its water, but does not have an avenue to flow out. As we come together as a community, we hope to not be like the ‘dead sea’ where we receive from God but not bless others around us.
