Thank you Iman for highlighting this question. I have a very vague memory that the issue of "local churches" was broached before. This feels like one of those details that were previously deprecated in the name of internationalization and generalization. "Local churches" was particularly problematic ...

Does it make sense to include an example in the cover memo (which I might assume will become the foundation for the eventual examples in RDA) from a name outside of Western or Classical references?
