Where Tradition Meets Today

The Dover Church is a community grounded in the old congregational tradition and the even more ancient practices of Christianity.

But while our faith is 2000 years old, our thinking is not! The Dover Church is on a mission to make church relevant again.

Each week, we offer fresh, inspiring messages that speak directly to the modern lives of our congregation. And we’re constantly on the lookout for new ways to live the compassion, love, and justice of Jesus in the world.
