The Christian community Beréa Heerlen was founded in 1993 by Piet Vente, Jan_Sjoerd_Pasterkamp and Leen de Rijk. Piet Vente was the pastor until he handed it over to Glenn Comvalius in 2000. In 2004 the church moved from the Zeswegen district to Schaesbergerweg 136 in Heerlen where they moved into their own building. In 2010 Glenn Comvalius handed over the pastorship to Remco de Zwart.
