The Dover Church of Christ is a very active church. Like the church of the first century, its primary emphases are evangelism, edification, benevolence, fellowship, and worship (Acts 2: 37-47). This page is your guide to who is leading what in the ministries of the Dover Church of Christ. This can be helpful if you are trying to find yourself in the work of one or more ministries. We urge your involvement in at least one ministry.

 

The Dover Church of Christ is scripturally organized under the local leadership of four elders: William "Nubbin'" Boley, Jim Killer, Allen Veasman, and Sid Womack. Seven deacons and three additional ministry leaders provide the first-line supervision of the church's ministries. The listings of the ministries below are grouped with the elders who work most closely with those ministries. Ministries that report to the entire eldership are listed last.
