The Little Springs Missionary Baptist Church is a historic church at 4040 Arkansas Highway 58 in Poughkeepsie, Arkansas. Built in 1946, it is built using a distinctive construction method of wood framing finished in stone in a style known as "giraffe rock", in which the exterior is clad in mortared sandstone slabs. The main portion of the church is two stories in height and covered by a gable roof, with a gabled entrance vestibule at the center of the front facade.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.[1]
