Ministries at FBC Dover
Making Disciples For Over 120 YEARS
Preschool Ministry
The foundation of all learning comes from grammar; it is the building block of any memorization. At FBC Dover, we strategically align with partnering with parents in memorizing scripture through song. Children’s minds can retain large amounts of information during their early years. To help parents, we’ve developed a memorization guide for children to encourage them to hide God’s word in their hearts. As children complete a memorization cycle, they are awarded a medal for their hard work!
Children’s Ministry
No matter your child’s age, our mission at First Baptist Dover is to partner with parents and grandparents to lead kids closer to Jesus Christ. We strongly believe that children are not the future; they are the focus of everything we do. We are passionate about creating an environment that encourages children to learn more about God’s word, memorize scripture and grow in their faith. We provide the necessary tools to help parents be confident in creating bible conversations at home. We provide interactive booklets that correlate with the Pastor’s sermon.
Student Ministry
At Dover Students we strive to Partner with Parents to see students reach their full potential in Jesus Christ. God’s Word has given parents the power to raise their students as disciples in Jesus Christ.
Our student minstry believes in leaders leading leaders. We desire to equip parents through resources, empower students to grow through the milestones of life, and extend the Gospel into our community.
College & Career
20’s Ministry
Our College & Career and 20’s Ministry is a launching point for young adults aged 18-29 years old to explore and learn how to live out their faith in the world. Through discipleship, they will be allowed to build upon the foundation of their faith and develop an understanding of why they believe what they do as Christians. We also provide resources to teach how to defend the faith and encourage young adults to participate actively in ministry opportunities. The goal at this stage is to develop a lifestyle that actively lives out a devotion to Christ. Our goal for this ministry is to become a place where disciples grow by equipping young adults to become biblically wise leaders who lead well and are impactful in creating a community where Jesus is boldly proclaimed.
Adult + Senior Ministry
Our Adult and Senior Adult Ministry strive to live the faith and to model for others what dedication and perseverance look like. We recognize that each generation has something valuable to impart to future generations, and our mentorship program helps ensure godly men and women are pouring into students. We want everyone who attends our church—young or old—to finish well. The discipleship paradigm aims to train multiple generations well beyond our years until “He receives the Nations as His inheritance” Psalm 2:7.
