ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Hundreds of people have gathered at an Anaheim church to pray for the family of a 10-year-old boy who drowned after being swept away by the Merced River and whose 6-year-old brother remains missing.
The Orange County Register says about 400 churchgoers attended a service Saturday night at Calvary Chapel remembering Andres Adams and his brother, Jacob, who was missing but presumed dead.
The two boys were swept away late Wednesday in a rough stretch of the Merced River during a side trip to Yosemite Valley.
The boys and their mother were on a church retreat when a hike to see Vernal Fall turned to tragedy. The mother suffered injuries trying to save them.
Four people have drowned in the park this year.
