Fully believing in the autonomy of the local church, Berea Baptist Church has chosen to be a part of these Local, State and National Organizations:

We minister to our communities through various practical and spiritual means and welcome seekers of the Truth as well as believers.


Baptist State Convention of North Carolina: Includes 78 local Baptist associations and about 4,300 churches. Our cooperating churches are autonomous and each church voluntarily decides to join the BSCNC in ministry and mission efforts. The BSCNC staff operates under the supervision of a board, which is comprised of pastors and lay people from its member churches across the state.

What we offer here is an overview to help tell the story of what God is doing in and through the people called Southern Baptists.
