About 80% of the Chinese in Europe are involved in the catering trade. Since 1969, COCM has been actively involved in outreach work among the restaurant workers. The primary goals of the Restaurant Ministry Department are:

1. To preach the Gospel to the Chinese working in restaurants and takeaways in Europe.

2. To help the believers to grow spiritually.

3. To mobilise Christian restaurant workers for evangelism. There are now Fellowships in England, Scotland, Ireland and Benelux.

4. To publish evangelistic reading material for restaurant workers.
