About this church
The Sanctuary Church gathers Sundays at 10 a.m. and Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. in Fort Smith. Its Pentecostal identity is clear in the congregation's emphasis on repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, the infilling of the Holy Spirit, and a deeper relationship with Christ for people from every background. The church describes itself as a community drawn from many walks of life and uses the phrase “Loving God. Loving others. Living by faith.” Current leaders include a pastoral couple with earlier experience in youth and music ministry, alongside dedicated student and children's ministry couples.
Sanctuary Kidz teaches biblical truth as part of children's spiritual, physical, and intellectual development, with a stated goal of giving families tools that carry faith formation beyond the church building. The student ministry stresses unity, mutual care, prayer, forgiveness, and one generation sharing faith with the next. Outreach extends beyond internal programs: the congregation is a covenant church with Arkansas Valley Habitat for Humanity, supporting home construction through prayer, funding, and volunteer labor, and it supports North American church planting and international missionaries. The site does not publish service duration, music format, Communion practice, dress, parking or accessibility guidance, hearing resources, age-specific Sunday room schedules, check-in, screening, or livestream details.
