WHO WE ARE

A family built around the local church

DOVE began with young people gathering in homes across Lancaster County in the 1970s. What grew from those relationships became a family of churches with the same conviction at its heart: Jesus builds His church through people who are willing to follow Him, make disciples, and help others do the same.
