4-13-2010 is the 200th birthday of FCD Wyneken the father of American home missions. If you are a member of a Lutheran parish in Adams and Allen county Indiana thank the Lord that He used a man such as Wyneken to preach the Gospel and that the Holy Spirit planted the seeds of faith which continues now in the lives of families EIGHT GENERATIONS later. Had he not come after Hoover died we all might now be pagans!
If you are a graduate of Concordia Theological Seminary thank the Lord that He used a man such as Wyneken to establish a seminary to train pastors/teachers and missionaries.
If you are a student of CTS remember the greatest theological training happens out in the field where the Lord places you.
To all Christians ask the Lord to give you a passion for missions. Like Wyneken, go and gossip the Gospel. The faith is taught and it is caught. This Wyneken has given to the church.
