Our Vision
To be the hands and feet of Christ to our state and to create future leaders of the Universal Church.
Our Mission
To transform lives through worship, fellowship, and hands-on mission.
Who We are
Ozark Mission Project (OMP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit mission that serves across the state of Arkansas. We have been transforming lives and legacies through building projects for 36 years. Our largest program, summer missions, aims to organize youth and community groups to engage in Arkansas communities by serving individuals and families, our neighbors, who are in need of minor construction and yard work. In addition to the physical service projects, we strive to meet social and emotional needs by spending part of our time visiting, sharing lunch and, if the neighbor so chooses, a devotional. We do not discriminate in the selection of our neighbors.
our purpose
To enhance the daily lives of our neighbors and inspire hope
To encourage our campers to put their faith in action in their local churches and communities
To establish lasting friendships and memories
To develop leadership skills
To deepen faith in God
OUR NEIGHBORS
At Ozark Mission Project, we lovingly use the term “neighbor” in reference to homeowners in need. Jesus said to love our neighbors as ourselves, so we put that love into action by completing these beautification and accessibility projects for our neighbors.
We seek to empower our neighbors
On the surface, the benefit is purely physical – a wheelchair ramp, a porch repaired, a house painted, a lawn mowed. However, the impact is deep and lasting: a disabled neighbor is empowered to move around on her own; a struggling single mom has a new sense of pride in her home; a retiree can sip sweet tea on his sturdy porch.
our Core Values
Worship
We intentionally position our hearts to allow Christ to be the center of our mission.
Fellowship
We build relationships that break down the barriers in order to create communities and a foundation for fellowship.
Hands-on Mission
We believe all people deserve a safe place that they are proud to call “home.”
