Oak Dale Mennonite Church (Conservative Mennonite), near Salisbury, Somerset County, Pennsylvania, was one of the three meetinghouses of the Casselman River congregation of the Conservative Mennonite Conference. Services were held every two weeks, simultaneously with Cherry Glade in the southern part of the district. On alternate Sundays and for communion or special meetings the whole congregation met at Maple Glen near Grantsville, Maryland. The Oak Dale church, a frame structure built in 1896, was remodeled and enlarged in 1931.  Seating capacity was 350 in 1959.

In 2010 the congregation had a membership of 170 and was led by Joseph A. Byler.
