Since its founding in 1966 the society has experienced phenomenal growth. It presents itself as a complex organization responsible for the welfare of thousands of people. As of 1970, there are 30 centers. Each of these centers if a self-contained unit which functions as a church, seminary, and home for each of its ministers and divinity students.
The following list is intended to identify and describe each of the locations of the society including all available information on the number and identity of the ministers the ministerial students and the estimated size of each congregation. Since no precise records are kept, estimations are made on the basis of at least monthly attendance; that is, if a person attends less than once a month he will not be considered to be a member of the congregation.
