Prayer List
Updated March 24
The faculty and staff of Ozark Adventist Academy thank our constituents for their continued support of educating the young people in Christian schools.
Unfortunately, the needs and demands are much greater than we are able to meet by ourselves. These are items that are not part of our budget and at the same time important to the needs of the school. Please consider each of these items in prayer and if you are impressed to give to any of the items below, describe which items you wish to donate to and we will make sure it goes to that item.
Sincerely,
Mike Dale
