View source for New Danville Reformed Mennonite Church (Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA)

The New Danville [[Reformed Mennonite Church|Reformed Mennonite Church]] is located five miles (eight km) south of [[Lancaster (Pennsylvania, USA)|Lancaster]], Pennsylvania. The meetinghouse was built in 1837, and was known as the Stumptown church. It was organized under the leadership of Bishop Abram Snavely, one of the first ministers in that district. This frame building was used for many decades. Other ministers who served the congregation were John Kohr, Sr., Elias H. Hershey, John Kohr, Jr., Henry Fisher, Levi Weaver, and Christian Howry. The ministers of this group were not assigned to one particular meetinghouse, but alternated in the churches in the county. Likewise the members attended the meetings wherever they were held; it is therefore hard to give exact membership figures for that time. In the 1950s the alternating ministers were Jacob L. Kreider, J. Henry Fisher, Clyde Weaver, Ray Eshleman, Willis Weaver, and Earl M. Basinger. The total Reformed Mennonite membership in [[Lancaster County (Pennsylvania, USA)|Lancaster County]] was about 300 in 1948.
