Mission (LDS Church)
A mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) is a geographical administrative area to which church missionaries are assigned. Almost all areas of the world are within the boundaries of an LDS Church mission, whether or not Mormon missionaries live or proselytize in the area. As of July 2015, there are 418 missions of the LDS Church.
== Administrative structure ==
Geographically, a mission may be a city, a city and surrounding areas, a state or province, or perhaps an entire country or even multiple countries. Typically, the name of the mission is the name of the country (or state in the United States), and then the name of the city where the mission headquarters office is located.〔The main exceptions to this rule are the ''Singapore Mission'' and ''Baltic States Mission'' of the church. Also in the cases of such missions as the Washington, D.C. South Mission the designated city is not in the mission at all, but it is identified with that city because none in the mission boundaries are large enough. Also there are missions such as the Michigan Detroit Mission, where the mission office is in Farmington, Michigan but the name of the largest city in the mission is used. A consultation of the ''2007 Deseret News Church Almanac'' will show this and other exceptions to the generalized rule.〕
New missionaries receive a formal ''mission call'', assigning them to a particular mission for the duration of their two years or eighteen months of service. Each mission has, on average, about 150 missionaries serving there.
