Berean Baptist Church had her beginning on December 20, 1942, as a mission Sunday School through First Baptist Church of Eugene. Berean was an extension of First Baptist during the first fourteen years, then, on May 6, 1954, was granted independence. There were 184 members constituting the membership of Berean at this time.

Berean has experienced many phases of growth and development since she began her start sixty-one years ago. In 1958, the church became affiliated with the Conservative Baptist Association of Oregon and America, and that same year “Operation Nehemiah”, the building of a Sunday School addition to the main building, was begun. A major project to remodel the sanctuary was completed in 1991, and in the fall of 1992, a new building addition began that has since been completed. God had been faithful to Berean and her members throughout the years, and as membership grew, so did the need for more building space.

Under the leadership of one of Berean’s pastors in the 1980’s, several new programs were implemented including AWANA and the Navigator 2:7 discipleship series.

On July 1, 1994, Pastor Mike Jaskilka began his ministry as pastor of Berean and is still here today. He has worked with the Board of Elders to give the church a greater outward focus and to clarify the church's vision for the future.
