DAHLONEGA, Ga. — There is something in the DNA of Dahlonega Baptist Church, the church on the hill overlooking downtown Dahlonega. “It’s a phenomenal church to be at,” Senior Pastor Charlie Mayberry said of the 186-year-old church. “If you come here, you're going to get loved on, and you're going to be welcomed, and we're going to treat you like family. We're going to go out of our way to connect with you.”
