What should I bring to worship service?
You will need a mask and may want to bring a bible, pen, and paper since we will not be passing these items out to limit touchpoints.
What can I expect when I arrive?
- Doors will open 30 minutes before each service. Attendees will not be allowed into the building before that time.
- Worship space doors will open 15 minutes before each service to allow our Clean Team time to sanitize the spaces.
- Your entire party must be together when you enter the worship area to be seated together.
- To maximize the number of people we can seat while allowing for proper social distancing, Ushers will seat you in the order you arrive from the front of the worship space to the rear.
What about my kids?
Programming is available on Sunday mornings for kids ages birth - grade 5. We have limited capacity in our kids' rooms, so pre-registration is required. Once at church, you will be directed to Kids Check-in where we will help you check in your children, give you a pickup tag, and direct you to the correct room. Go to the Berean Kids page for more on what we offer for kids, preteens, and the Berean Youth page for more on our youth programs.
For more information on how to register your kids and what to do when you arrive, watch this video from Tanner, our Berean Kids Director. Click here to learn how to use the Church Center App.

What are your COVID-10 procedures?
Berean has made accommodations per Minnesota mandates and CDC recommendations to keep everyone in our building safe.
- Masks are required by everyone while inside the building at all times, even while singing. The only exceptions are those who are on the stage singing or speaking and are socially distanced.
- Outside doors will open 30 minutes before each service. Attendees will not be allowed into the building before that time.
- Worship space doors will open 15 minutes before each service to allow our Clean Team time to sanitize the spaces.
- Your entire party must be together when you enter the worship area to be seated together.
- To maximize the number of people we can seat while allowing for proper social distancing, Ushers will seat you in the order you arrive from the front of the worship space to the rear.
- When the service ends, the ushers will dismiss you by row to help allow for social distancing. Please remain at your seat until your row is dismissed.
- Following every worship service, kids program, or group meeting, our clean team sanitizes all rooms.
- The toddler cry room, nursing room, children's rooms, and restrooms have capacity requirements posted.
- Registration for kids' programs is required to help maintain appropriate room capacities.
- Registration for weekend services is only necessary as needed to help maintain appropriate room capacities (such as for larger services such as Christmas Eve.) At this time, we are able to maintain room capacities without requiring registration.
- While we want you to attend in-person services, if you have COVID symptoms, or have been directly exposed to someone with COVID, we would ask that you watch on-line during the 14-day quarantine recommendation.
