South Side supports missions locally through the Great Commission Baptist Association of the River Valley (formerly Concord Baptist Association) as well as through a number of other community action mission projects. We feel a responsibility to minister to the community. We do this through visitation programs, special events, involvement in community functions, and attempting to discover new ways to reach people with the message of Jesus.
Local mission efforts include:
- Interfaith Center
- Community Rescue Mission
- University of Arkansas, Fort Smith BCM
- Set Free Prison Ministry
- Pregnancy Crisis Center
- Hope campus
