Recently, Peggy Riley and Hope Jeffers took six youths to Young Christians Weekend at Silver Dollar City. They participated in two worship services with spirit-filled music and powerful messages. They fellowshipped with other young Christians from all over, listened to Christian bands throughout the park, and prayed while on the roller coaster.
