The world's fastest growing religious movement is Pentecostalism. It started as one congregation in Los Angeles about 1900, and hundred years later it has 250 to 500 millions followers. The number varies according to whether one includes the later charismatic revivalism.
But Pentecostals are Congregationalist, that is, they don't believe there has to be one church organization. Every congregation is independent.
