In partnership with The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS) World Mission we work with partner church bodies and emerging church bodies worldwide. We have active work or mission relationships in approximately 88 countries. For administrative and strategy purposes, international fields are divided into four regions: Africa, Asia, Eurasia, and Latin America.

In each region, LCMS World Mission has indentified "priority platforms" through which we work to proclaim the Gospel, plant churches, train leaders, facilitate strategic mission development, and lead global mission multiplication.

• Africa - training national leaders, including pastors, evangelists, and lay leaders
• Asia - reaching people through education and human care ministries
• Eurasia - reconnecting people to their Christian heritage
• Latin America - training national missionaries
