The Rev. Peter Burfeind and the Rev. Adam DeGroot were blessed and sent out as the first two “Mission Field: USA” national missionaries during a service on Jan. 12, 2016, at the LCMS International Center in Kirkwood, Mo.

“Mission Field: USA” is the LCMS Office of National Mission’s (ONM) new church-planting initiative. It seeks to support congregations, circuits and districts as they plant new Lutheran churches.
