Serving Others | The Dover Church
Serving Others
The mission work of the Dover Church is born from a desire to grow in faith and to continue the work of Jesus Christ in our time and in this place. Core to The Dover Church covenant is our mission to put our faith into action beyond our congregation - whether within our town, the local community, or across the world. And while there are many things we could do, all efforts we put forth start with members of our congregation – those who have come forward with a great idea plus the passion, commitment and resources necessary to build a sustained and successful initiative.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, plans for a 2021 MATE Trip have been put on hold. We hope to be able to offer an immersive service opportunity for our youth group in the summer of 2021, and will communicate with our families as soon as we have a firmer sense of what will be possible. Thank you for your patience!
