Berea Future

The Berea Future Team has been investigating options for revitalizing our ministry, most recently meeting with leaders from Woodbury, Mt. Calvary, and Redemption.  Here's a Lutheran Witness article discussing typical mutli-congregation parish options.  Watch The Eager Berean newsletter for updates, talk to team members, review these documents and links, see Woodbury documents in the Fireside Room, browse the Woodbury Lutheran website, and if at all possible attend one of their worship services.  Watch for another congregational meeting this fall.  If you have questions or would like to be part of the team, talk to Paul H. or Pastor Tiaden.


Back to the Bible Summit

Ruthie Wagner, Translation Development Specialist from Lutheran Bible Translators, invites you to attend, online or in person, the Back to the Bible Summit 2026 on September 30, 9:00 to noon.  This free event explores practical and creative ways we can help more people connect with Scripture.


New Members

Welcome to the people who officially joined our journey with Jesus on 6/28:  Sherri B, Allison C, Adam F, and Rick M!  The next new member class will be starting soon.  Current members are welcome to attend as a review.  Call the office to get on the list.
 

Women's Bible Study and Fellowship

Laurel J. led the study “Anxious for Nothing – Finding Calm in a Chaotic World” by Max Lucado.  The study is complete, but a new one will be starting this fall, time and topic TBD. Non-members are welcome, so it's a great opportunity to invite a neighbor.  Call the office to get on the list.

 

Good News for the World!
