YAH Purpose

The Young at Heart Ministry is for Senior Adults (those past retirement age) in the Dayton, Ohio area. We provide times of fellowship and entertainment during our monthly Luncheons. We also provide the opportunity to see interesting places and things around the area during our monthly Day Trips. Once a year (sometimes more frequently) we offer a longer trip to see areas far from Dayton. All of our programs are designed to be honoring to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Branson Trip - Day 7

A fantastic trip comes to an end!


Saturday, September 26 was our final day of this trip. We departed St. Louis
at 8:30 in the morning after a nice breakfast in our hotel. Then we drove across, Illinois, Indiana and into Ohio before arriving in Dayton about 5:30PM.
This time is significant and is representative of the way our trip went all week. This is the time of return originally planned. All week we arrived and departed as planned. In fact, often we were a little early.

I think everyone truly enjoyed this trip. Our driver, Donna, was a very good driver and a great assistance throughout the trip. She became part of our group and a real friend to most of our Young at Heart people. She was also a great help when last minute arrangements or changes had to be made.

This trip was a fun one and will live on in our memories for a long time. Of course a lot of the credit goes to the entertainers and our planners, Diamond Tours. However, I believe one other major reason for the success of this trip is our people. Everyone was cooperative and helped each other when help was needed. Some long lasting friendships have been made during the week of our Branson Trip. It is my hope that these relationships will continue and grow.
