I've heard two numbers: 400.000 and 700.000 both from fairly reliable sources. So my guess is there are between 4-700.000 career missionaries in the world today. This number does not count people that go on short term missions trips. There are not even a million out there for a world population of 6.6 billion people. Like the Lord said: The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.

And I don't know how they get theses numbers. but the one site has an email address if you are intrested in asking.There is more missionaries in the world than ever before.Unless one has access to the records of any given church or religious body the question would be difficult to answer.
