SILVER DOLLAR CITY's WILDERNESS CHURCH

It was such a beautiful day in the Ozarks, 50 degrees in late December. Silver Dollar City was calling out our names. Rick and I have enjoyed attending the Wilderness Church service on Sunday mornings whenever we go to Silver Dollar City. As I have shared before I have very deep roots at Silver Dollar City.

The Wilderness Church was moved to Silver Dollar City 51 years ago from a location only a few miles away. When they purchased the church it was already 160 years old. Growing up, my parents would take us to service before my Dad went to work each Sunday. I would look out the same window and read the passage above. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help! I always feel at peace whenever I walked through the doors at the Wilderness Church.

If you are interested in Getting Married in this Very Special Place, they have some great packages available. My baby sister had a gorgeous wedding there 25 years ago there. Traditional and Timeless! And if you want to renew your wedding vows you can make a memory worth repeating!
