The focus of resources listed in this category is on websites representing places of worship in Berrien Springs, Michigan, although any topic relating to faith, religion, or spirituality in the village would be appropriate here.
Most, if not all, of these, are likely to be Christian church sites because Christianity is the most common religion in Berrien Springs. Slightly less than half the village population claims to be religious. Of these, the majority are affiliated with one of several Protestant denominations, although the most common single denomination is Catholicism, with 11% of those claiming a religion. Next are the Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Pentecostals, Pentecostals, and others, including non-denominational Christians. Approximately 2% of the population identifies with the Islamic faith.
Although the surveys combine the Seventh-day Adventists in Berrien Springs under a classification for “Other Christians,” it is probably fair to assume that the SDA is a significant population within the village, given the existence of Andrews University, Andrews Academy, and Village SDA Elementary School within or just outside of the village boundaries.
Whatever the particular religion, denomination, or sect, sites representing churches or other places of worship, ministries, or other topics related to religion n the village, are suitable for this category.
