WHAT IS IT? IN A NUTSHELL…
Recess Revolution is a movement/mobilization of young people who are maximizing “recess time” (“waktu rehat”) in schools to make a statement of what they believe in, and to make an impact by being a positive influence right where they are. It is a coming together of like-minded, “like-spirited” youths to do something* together in their schools with a mission to make the difference and bring about positive change (i.e. revolution)! It is not just about bringing people to Christ, but - even more so - about bringing Christ to people (and into schools)!

*“DO SOMETHING??”
“Doing something” can include:-

• just bringing your Bibles to school; displaying it, carrying it around
• studying Bible heroes or hold meaningful conversations at recess
• gathering at the flagpole to pray, or gathering all the Christians at the school field just to see how many there are!
• doing random acts of kindness for peers or teachers!
• and many more!

Sometimes it can also mean NOT doing something: non-action or non-compliance, especially when temptation to comply with unrighteous or ungodly policies kicks in!

While you will find many helpful guidelines, materials, and even weekly/monthly “assignments” that you can adopt, from this website, on how you can run “Recess Revolution” in your schools . . . please also be free to explore and experiment even as the Holy Spirit leads you to do what’s relevant and impactful for your school!

HOW?
About the tagline: Show Up. Stand Up. Speak Up.

SHOW UP

• First of all, you need to "show up" in School! Don't ponteng (unnecessarily!) :)
• It's the least and simplest thing you can do! Being there counts! Numbers sometimes reflects strength!
  • When there's a gathering of Christians at the flag pole - show up!
  • When there's a Bible Study at the canteen - show up!
  • When there's a call for Prayer - show up!
  • When there's a call for students to wear Christian t-shirts right after school - "show" up! (i.e. Wear it!)

STAND UP

• Stand for something, especially for what is right. Someone once said, "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything"
• Rise up, and not back down. Lift up the standards (of God) - somebody needs to do it!
• For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind! Not fear, but faith!
  • Stand up to the giants of the day - and with the Holy Spirit's help, overcome!
  • Be bold and proud of who you are - you are a Christian, a Disciple of Christ, a child of God, more than a conqueror, and the list goes on!

SPEAK UP

• Make a statement, and when necessary use words!
  • you can make a statement by bringing your bibles
  • you can make a statement by reading your bibles during recess
  • you can make a statement by NOT cheating in your exams even when all your friends are doing it, and the teacher even offers it!
  • you can make a statement by speaking up against injustice
  • you can make a statement by doing acts of kindness, meeting real needs of students in school
  • you can make a statement by cleaning up the school!
  • the list goes on and on...!
