Mate, the call of missions crosses cultures, countries and religion. So if you want to share the gospel, God bless, that's the mandate of God.
Now if you don't know yet, going to missions is difficult without organisational support. This is where denominational lines kick in. You are lucky if you can convince or even find different denominations who would be willing to support you.

Do you know the first missionaries were Catholic? And that every single Catholic Diocese has an office devoted to continuing the Church's missionary work?
If you feel called to the one true Church of Jesus Christ, contact your local Catholic Church and speak to the RCIA director. That is the program that instructs people in the teachings of the Catholic Church- there is no obligation- some people attend just to learn more about the Church.
EWTN.com is the BEST site on the web for learning about the faith as it is intended to be taught.

A Catholic can become a missionary if you want to be.
By my definition a missionary is a person who looks at the world and the people from the eyes of God and says this is not what it ought to be. Things must be different. AND I will make a difference at least at some place among some people.

Why do you say "but"? The Catholic Church sends out far more missionaries than any other church, both lay people and priests. Catholic missionaries are currently working in every country on earth, a claim that no other church can come close to making.

PaulCyp is absolutely correct (as a deacon of the catholic church, if he's who i think he is).
There is no reason you cannot come home to the catholic church and not become a christian missionary as well. The church has a very active missionary program which can include all sorts of aspects of the faith.

I think that this is a beautiful and unselfish thing to do and I pray for your future work,however I believe that you really need to try and understand more fully about this conviction you have, how deep is it? are there real and genuine reasons for it? are you praying daily for enlightenment from the Holy Spirit regarding this?
I f you can say yes to these questions and still feel strongly then I suggest that you have a good talk with the local Catholic Parish Priest in your area.

If you are interested in joining or just learning more about the Catholic Church, contact your local parish and ask about information about their RCIA Inquiry group.
You can go and ask any questions you want.
This is the first step in RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) but you can stop at any time.
There is no obligation to become a Catholic.
With love and prayers in Christ.

Well that depends on where you are most happy but it doesn't matter coz you're worshiping the same God and that is what matters. Accept Jesus and it's up to you which way you choose. Personally I choose Christian.^_^
