Support OAA’s Art Students and Help Us Get a Kiln Ozark Adventist Academy’s art students have been busy creating special-original, hand painted wooden ornaments, each one signed by the student who painted it! No two ornaments are alike, and every piece reflects the creativity happening in our art room this year.

To help raise funds for a kiln for the art department, these ornaments are available for a suggested donation of $20 each. Whether you’re local or out of the area, we’ll make sure your ornament gets safely to you - either by delivery or by mail. Donate online: https://forms.diamondmindinc.com/ozark/art  

Membership Cards are located in the side pocket of the greeter’s stands at both entrances.  If you are interested in joining the Gentry church please fill out the small card and return to the Pastor or the church office.

Devotional Books for 2026 will be available to place your order at Sleepy Hollow.  There is a flyer on the bulletin board with the books that will be available. Also the Sharing book for the year will be Danger, Deceptions and our Destiny.

Christmas Caroling

Come join us on Sunday, Dec. 20, at 4:30 p.m. in the youth center as we gather for our first annual Christmas Caroling event!

Together, we’ll spread joy and the message of Christ through song as we go door to door sharing beloved  Carols  with our community.

After caroling, we’ll meet back in the youth center to enjoy a light supper, treats, fellowship, and fun.  In addition to the meal there will also be games available for those who wish to participate.

This special event is being sponsored by our church ministries, making it a wonderful opportunity to lift spirits, celebrate the season, and connect with one another in harmony.  Bring your voice, your smile, and your holiday cheer.  Let’s make this a night to remember.
