welcome
January 2026
Thanks for worshipping with us today! It’s our hope that at Emerge you can have a genuine experience with God that makes you feel more alive than ever before! Our services are filled with excitement, music, and Bible-centered messages for every age and stage of your family.
The reason we meet is so that we can change. We believe that church should be life-giving, which means that you leave with more than you came.

EMERGE SMALL GROUPS
WINTER/SPRING SEMESTER
EMERGE INTO FRIENDSHIP!
Church is more than just filling a seat on Sunday. Meaningful friendships only happen when we interact. Spiritual friendships lead to spiritual life! So, we also meet in small groups regularly to get to know one another and learn how to become a strong Christian.
INTERESTED IN JOINING A GROUP?
PIZZA WITH THE PASTOR
New to Emerge?
Let’s have some pizza! This one-session group after church on Sunday is an opportunity to meet Pastor Herb and some of the Emerge staff. We’ll share a little about Emerge, and give you an opportunity to ask any questions. If you’d like to get more involved, we’ll have some info. Can’t wait to grab a few slices and get to know you!
eKids
We offer ekids (nursery - 5th grade) during both of our services at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Safety is first in our eKids areas! Every child is checked in, and parents are notified in the event that your child is in need. All of our staff and volunteers have proper clearances and background checks.
Ignite Youth
We believe that as teens become adults, they become part of the life of our church, serving on Dream Team and joining Sunday services as attenders. During the week, our teens come together for both large and small group activities to engage about life and faith and to grow in Christian friendships. For more information, contact: Igniteyouthhanover@gmail.com.
Elevate
Our Elevate program is a pathway of courses and small groups designed to assist you in growing in your personal faith and activating your purpose in community. Whether you’re new to faith (101),you’re hungering for more (201), or you’re ready to grow into your calling (301),there’s more for you!
Dream Team
Dream Team is our system for recruiting, training, and supporting Emerge volunteers in serving God and our community. We believe that our church experience is elevated when we invest ourselves into what God is doing here. By learning the value of service, we increase our own value and join the best team on the planet—God’s Dream Team!
