Our Latest Services

Berea Lutheran Church believes and teaches the Word of God (the Bible) in its truth and purity. Namely,

  • God the Father created man holy and without sin.
  • After Creation, man disobeyed God. This sin earned man eternal punishment in hell.
  • God loved man so much, that He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to this world to keep the whole Law of God for us, to suffer, and to die for our sins. Jesus did this so that whoever believes on Him as their Savior from sin, will have eternal life in heaven.
  • God the Holy Spirit uses this Good News (Gospel) of Jesus Christ to cause us to believe.

Worship

Berea uses a specific order of worship for our services.  Unlike Old Testament times, God does not give us a specific order for our worship of Him, other than it be “orderly” (1 Corinthians 14:40) and Biblical (Ephesians 5:19 and Colossians 3:16).   Each element of our liturgy is drawn directly from God’s Word and attempts to focus our attention on what God has done for us in Christ.  Many elements of our worship service have been used by Christ believers since the earliest days of the New Testament church.  If you are new to Berea and find our order of worship foreign, focus first on the Bible verses used in our liturgy and ask members or the pastors questions.  For further reading, HERE is an explanation of the historical Lutheran liturgy.

Vacation Bible School

Each summer, Berea offers “Vacation Bible School” (VBS) for four year-olds through those entering 8th Grade in the Fall.  VBS is held for 5 days from 9:00 to Noon during the summer months.  This is a great time for our children to have fellowship time together in God’s Word with devotions and Bible lessons, learning songs about Jesus, crafts, and snacks.

Catechism

Christian parents have been called by God to bring up their children in the training and instruction of the Lord.  (Ephesians 6:4)  To help our parents in this important calling, Berea offers Catechism Class for students in 6th through 8th grade.  In this class we cover the basics of the Bible and of our Christian faith (Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, Baptism and Lord’s Supper).  Classes are based on Martin Luther’s Small and Large Catechism and are offered during the school year.
