A 'domestic church' may mean one of two things:
First, a 'domestic church' may mean a branch of a larger religious body that is strictly focused on meeting the needs of a particular community. These branches do not normally provide services at the national or international level, and are typically funded and monitored by a council of the international church from which they are derived. The Mormon Church is an example of an international church which sustains domestic churches focused on serving single communities.
Second, a 'domestic church' may refer to a faith exclusive to all but a single community. In this instance, the church is referred to as a 'domestic church' because it does not serve communities or individuals beyond a designated geographical area, or the particular faith is not popular beyond the community it resides in.
