CHURCH PLANTING

As a church, we have a value to multiply everything that’s healthy. This includes followers of Jesus, leaders, small groups, and churches. From day one, Elm City has had a desire to be a church planting church. Our vision has been to multiply 25 healthy Life Groups and start 2 new churches in the next ten years. This all comes from a desire to obey the Great Commission and see disciples made.

We launched River Valley Church in Walpole in September 2024, and have plans to launch Rock City Church in Merrimack in September 2025.
