Growth
The Church of God (Restoration) has a growing number of congregations worldwide and promotes outreach and mission work in various countries. They heavily encourage all Christians to unite and bind into one visible body of believers. Congregations are located in several States and countries.
Although the group draws most of its members from various Anabaptist and Church of God churches, its adherents represent a broad diversity of backgrounds, both religious and cultural. One method of outreach has been to have a large group of adherents attend conventions or services of other churches (often churches from which members have been previously gleaned) with the apparent goal of gaining new members.
