Our Ministries
Northwest Arkansas Campmeeting
Coming in 2025
From the 82 year old retired teacher sitting on the second row to the three year old scooping up sand in the sandbox, Northwest Arkansas Campmeeting offers a wide variety of activities and spiritual programming for almost any age. The campmeeting runs from Tuesday through Saturday night. In years past, we have had speakers such as Doug Batchelor, Mark Finley, and Shawn Boonstra. But regardless of the year, most visitors to Northwest Arkansas Campmeeting find a spiritual blessing from attending.
Prison Ministries
Bible Lessons and Literature
Prison Ministries is a powerful way to share Christ’s love and bring hope for a better future. Volunteers serve as teachers by grading Bible lessons and encouraging inmates in their walk with God. No prior experience is needed—just a love for Christ and a desire to help others. This growing ministry offers a unique chance to make an eternal difference in the lives of those behind bars. To learn more or to get involved, please contact the church office at 479-736-8808 or Ella Fisher at 479-736-8075.
Pathfinders
Starts in September!
The Gentry Travelers Pathfinder Club is part of a worldwide, church-sponsored program that helps build character, strengthen faith, and prepare hearts for Christ’s soon return. Pathfinders is full of activities and adventures for boys and girls ages 10–15, including camping, arts and crafts, and earning honors. Any youth willing to follow the Pathfinder Pledge and Law may join regardless of church affiliation. Parents may contact the church office at 479-736-8808 for enrollment information.

Volunteers run nearly every aspect of the ministry—from sorting donations to greeting guests and leading seminars. Through caring service, the TLC lights the way with love.

Women's Ministries
Events Year Round
Women's Ministries in the North America Division as well as our local church seeks to build networks among women, mentor younger women, teens, and girls, and to encourage the ladies in our church and community to use their gifts and talents in God's service. Throughout the year there are a variety of activities sponsored by the Women's Ministry Team such as a ladies' tea, concert, sleepover, and brunch. This winter, Women's Ministries collected hundreds of pairs of new socks to distribute to those in need.
Educating for Eternity
Ozark Adventist Academy
High School for Grades Nine through Twelve
Located across the street from the Gentry Seventh-day Adventist Church, Ozark Adventist Academy provides a Christian education for students in grades nine through twelve. Unlike most high schools, Ozark offers both a boys’ and a girls’ dormitory for students who do not live in the immediate area, and the school enrolls international students as well as students from across the United States. The teachers and staff at OAA strive to make Christ the foundation of every subject while encouraging growth spiritually, academically, physically, and socially.
Ozark Adventist School
Elementary School (Pre-K through Grade 8)
Ozark Adventist School is located next to the Gentry Seventh-day Adventist Church and offers a Christian education to students in Pre-K through eighth grade. Like the Academy, OAS welcomes students from both the local community and surrounding areas, and provides a supportive environment for families who want Christian values in the classroom. The teachers and staff at OAS strive to make the Bible the foundation of their instruction while encouraging growth spiritually, academically, physically, and socially.
Ozark Adventist Academy and Ozark Adventist School admit students regardless of their church affiliation and have financial aid programs to help students who cannot afford a Christian Education.
