About Us

In 1874 the first religious group in Berthoud was formed: The United Brethren Congregation. This organization consisted of members gathering together in their homes and other meeting places for their religious practices. In 1904, the United Brethren Congregation was able to purchase land to build the Berthoud Church. However, the church did not become part of the Foursquare Church organization until 1956 after it was purchased by the English Foursquare church from the United Brethren Congregation.

   Once the church became the Berthoud Foursquare Church, the first pastor of the church led the English Foursquare Congregation for four years. After those four years, there were many pastors in and out until the English congregation closed the church in 1962. This was not the end. In 1965, Carrie McCormick, the woman whose family helped to fund and build the church, again, generously funded the reopening of the Berthoud Foursquare Church for the Spanish congregation.

   After this switch from the English congregation to the Spanish congregation, The Berthoud Foursquare Church was pastored by ten or more different pastors until 1989 when Pastor Steve Salazar took over after His Father. Pastor Steve's father, Pedro, was a Pastor and member of the congregation for seven years on and off between Pastors: Ruben, Mary, Ephraim, and five others who did not lead the congregation longer than a year. Pastor Steve was our Pastor for 34 years and took care of the church and his congregation diligently until he was called home to our Lord on December 28th, 2023.

    Today the Berthoud Foursquare Church is a bible-based church led by Pastor Steve Salazar Jr., who has been newly ordained as of 2024. Though the Congregation has gotten smaller over the years, this historical landmark still stands and remains active to attest to the unchanging ministry of Jesus Christ and declare the four scriptural roles of Jesus as Savior, Baptizer With the Holy Spirit, Healer, and Soon-Coming King worldwide.
