Placement Categories:
National Teams Join one of our teams of 4-15 people - Teams are made up of applicants from all over the U.S. and attend orientation and debriefing in the U.S. Most of these teams are in the summer. (Click here for current opportunities.)
Partnership Teams Create a team. Groups of 4-12 people from a church or school prepare and go on a trip together. Structure the trip around a ministry focus or other specific need. Get started with the Partnership team questionnaire.
Individual Placements Go on your own! For those considering long-term cross-cultural work; to experience daily missionary life; to explore a specific country or ministry and seek God’s guidance for the future.
Serve Asia Leaders Make a commitment to be a "mission mentor" to partner with OMF International staff in preparing Serve Asia teams. This is a great opportunity for those in the U.S. who have a heart for missions and will walk alongside others as they prepare to go overseas, work together and continue to integrate their training into life at home.
