I do know that the church to which I belong, St Mary's Catholic Church in Peru IL has both the standard Christian cross and the Celtic Cross on the roof of the church. The Christian cross extends high on the steeple and the Celtic cross is above the doors. This parish was formed and the present church built by immigrants wishing to establish an English speaking church as the others in town were either Polish or German. This is presently an endangered church.

Is the Catholic church the name historians gavce formation of many protestant churches during the 16th century?

The name "catholic" means universal, so the "catholic church" is all the believers in Christ all over the world. The organized church was more (or less) one church until the Eastern Orthodox church split from the Roman Catholic church, which was (and is) headquartered in Rome. At the time of the Protestant Reformation, the Protestant churches left the rule of the Roman Catholic church and formed their own denominations (such as Lutherans, Baptists, Presbyterians). Sometimes people use the term "catholic" when they really should use the term Roman Catholic, so things can get confused.

Where was the first Roman Catholic Church?

Answer:In the first centuries of the Early Church, there was no "Catholic Church", "Orthodox Church" or "Protestant Churches". The Church certainly developed differently according to where Christians lived as they were affected by their own culture. For example, this meant that the way in which worship was expressed was not the same in Egypt as it was in Gaul (France) or Britain. The first splits took place quite soon (e.g. during the 4th century) due mainly to disagreements over teaching on Christ, but even then it would be inaccurate to say that those in Egypt began referring to themselves as the Coptic Church (the name used today) and those focussed on the Bishop of Rome as the Catholic Church (Note that the term 'Roman' Catholic did not come into use until the after the Reformation as was pejorative in nature)The Catholic Church (to use its proper title) centred on Rome might claim to be the oldest Church (as it believes Peter to have been the first Bishop of Rome i.e. pope), but this claim is also made by the Orthodox and Copts, both of which would say that it was the others which deviated..Catholic AnswerRoman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church. There was only one Church, and it has been known as the Catholic Church since the late First Century, it was established by Our Blessed Lord from the Cross, confirmed by the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and remains the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church from then until now. Please note that there can only be one Church, not a "first" Church. As Our Blessed Lord only established one Church and it is His Mystical Body, and His Bride. He cannot have "two" or more.
