Welcome
Welcome to St. John’s! We’re located in Dover, in the Seacoast area of New Hampshire (USA.) (Need directions?) St. John’s is a diverse congregation of over 450 members actively seeking to discover what it means to live and work together as people of God.
We’d love to have you visit with us this Sunday. Worship services begin at 9 & 10:30 AM, from the third Sunday of September through Mid-June*, with music in the gathering time beforehand. Sunday School is during the first service, during the school year. We have fellowship time following the service for visiting over coffee, juice, and snacks. We’d love to get to know you!
If you live in the Seacoast area or are thinking about moving here, explore our site and see if St. John’s might become your church home! What do United Methodists believe? Read about Our United Methodist Beliefs.

If you’re new, we hope this site will help you discover St. John’s! If you’ve been worshipping with us for awhile, we hope this site will help you learn more about the church family you love. You can get started by viewing the Upcoming Events listed to the right and the News items listed below. Also, Pastor Mark sends out a “News ‘n Notes” email about once a week. You can read it each week on this webpage, or it can be sent directly to your email by registering.
