Ozark Adventist School: This school year has been a fast start. We are excited to have completed the outdoor classroom porches and soon the drainage portion of this project will be complete. Donations have made this project possible. Our next vision is to construct the roofs for the porches. This will require raising funds to accomplish this goal. On October 23, we are having our Glow Ride night bike-a-thon. This is a fundraiser for Home & School. We appreciate Home & School, they provide many activities and contribute to school improvement projects. If you would like to give to these projects, please contact us at 479-279-8700 or contribute by marking your donation to OAS in your giving.  We thank you so much for your support.

Bring your Bibles!  Thursdays at 2:00 p.m. at the church.
