Pentecostal Assemblies of the World, inc., missionaries are a part of a growing worldwide group of believers in more than 40 nations and territories. In 2009 the International Missions Department identified a need to train those called to short-term service and in those with a lifelong calling.

If the Holy Spirit has been calling you to missions — whether it is for a few months, a year or two, or a lifetime — our department stands ready to respond to your inquiries and help in many different ways as the Lord guides you in His purpose and will for your life.
