Community outreach is a great way to impact the community you live in and are a part of, whether it’s by greeting people on Sunday morning, volunteering at another organization within the community, changing the oil in cars for Car Care Clinic, serving community members during Second Saturday Serve, or by serving in many other ways as part of Valley Fellowship.

Check out some of the various ways to serve within our community below! To find out more, or if you don’t see something that excites you, click the button below, fill out the form, and our coordinators will contact you. We’ll find a place for you!

Ark Valley Christian Mission ministers to those who are in spiritual and physical need according to God's provision with food, financial support, help and love. The Arkansas Valley Christian Mission exists to assist those in need with such things as food, shelter and the basic necessities of life, to serve the poor in spirit with a listening ear and a caring heart and by offering a Christian perspective, and to serve as a gathering place where the love of Christ can be shared and experienced in a non-denominational setting.

Treasured and Protected

Treasured and Protected is a local ministry that helps teen schoolgirls in developing countries stay in school. We make and donate washable feminine hygiene kits for girls who don’t have access to disposable pads so they can manage their periods independently and with dignity. Volunteers are needed to help sew the kit components (all sewing skill levels) and assemble the kits.
