What to Expect

Welcome to Berean!

Are you wondering what it’s like to attend a service? What to wear? How long a service will last? What your kids will do? We understand that you have questions when visiting a new church and we want you to feel right at home.

What type of church is Berean Baptist Church?

Berean is a gospel-centered community of hope with the Bible as our foundation. Our community gathers for worship at two campus locations (soon to be three) in the south metro area. Although we meet in different places, we are all part of the same church.

When and where are the services?

As a multisite church with locations in Burnsville and Lakeville, we provide a variety of convenient times and places to attend a service. The Burnsville Campus has services on Saturday at 5 p.m. and Sunday mornings at 8:30, 9:00, 10:30, and 11.

The Lakeville Campus, which currently meets at Lakeville North High School, has a Sunday morning service at 10:30 with a live band and simulcast message delivered from the Burnsville Campus. While the meeting places may be different, it’s all the same Berean experience.

*Due to Covid-19 restrictions, all campuses are currently meeting at the Burnsville location.

What should I wear?

There's no dress code for attending services at Berean, so wear what makes you feel comfortable. Some attenders dress casually and some dress up. It's all good!

What happens when I arrive?

When you arrive at a Berean campus, you’ll enter a lobby where you’ll be welcomed by one of our greeters. Before the service starts, you can grab a cup of coffee from the café. If you have children, you can check them into our Berean Kids ministry check-in station. If you have questions, someone at the welcome center can provide answers and help you find your way.

What about my children?

Our Berean Kids ministry provides an amazing experience during every service at every campus. Visit the Berean Kids check-in station, and our team will register your children and give them a name badge with a parent pick-up tag. During the check-in time please let us know if your child has any allergies or special needs. At the end of the service, show your parent pick-up tag to the room director in your child’s classroom, and we'll return your child to you. If we need to contact you during a service, your parent pick-up number will be displayed on the LED screens to the left and right of the stage.

What is a service like?

We always start our service with a time of praise and worship. We offer both modern and classic worship styles at the Burnsville Campus on Sundays. Modern services are available on Saturday night and at the Lakeville Campus. After worshipping together, we will share a few announcements about how you can be connected to what’s happening at Berean and then continue our worship through giving. Most weekends Pastor Roger or Pastor Tony will preach a relevant message from the Bible. Our service closes with a brief time to respond to God in both worship and prayer. The whole service will last 60 to 70 minutes.
