BERLIN â Harvest Christian Fellowship Church at 219 Willow St., was broken into  twice last week and the church estimated $4,000 in items were taken.
Pastor Robert Haynes said the two break-ins are unfortunate but will not stop the church from its mission of bringing hope to Berlin.
Haynes said the church will take steps to improve its security but will still operate its food pantry and continue its Community Cafe bi-weekly dinners.
âOverall weâre not changing what we do,â he said.
The church believes the break-ins occurred June 20-21 and June 24.
Taken were a laptop computer and hard drive from the office, a flat screen television from the nursery, a DVD player, and an expensive acoustic guitar used by the churchâs lead guitarist. The computer was password protected but it contains many of the churchâs forms.
