Produced by The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, A Resource for Church Planting offers a step-by-step approach for planting churches and provides a foundation for what it means to be a Lutheran congregation.
The resources, which support LCMS National Mission’s Mission Field: USA initiative, present a plan for church planting from forming a core group to becoming a fully established congregation in the LCMS.
