From http://www.elca.org/co/timeline/1700.html, part of the ELCA Family History, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, American Lutheran Developments in their Historical Context—Some Major Landmarks —Prepared by the Department for Communication:

    “Justus Falckner, born in Germany and educated at Halle, came to the new world in 1700 as an attorney and surveyor, having left Germany to avoid the ministry. When he arrived in Pennsylvania Falckner made the acquaintance of Swedish missionaries, who three years later recommended him to the Dutch congregation in New York. Ordained by the Swedes on November 24, 1703, Falckner was the first Lutheran to be ordained in America. Falckner's parish grew in area and in numbers as he continued to serve faithfully. His flock ultimately was composed not only of Dutch and Germans but also of Black and American Indian people. Falckner was also known for authoring treatises on doctrine and the hymn "Rise, O children of salvation" (LBW #182), as well as founding New Hanover Lutheran Church in New Hanover, Pennsylvania.”
