The True Faith has to have four marks; One, Holy, Catholic or Universal, and Apostolic. The Catholic Church has these four marks. One meaning: one Church, united in Faith and Worship, and is in succession from the Apostles themselves.Holy meaning: The Church is perfect, flawless, and is the spotless Bride of Christ. Even though the Catholic Church is made up of sinners, the Church itself is Holy. Catholic or Universal meaning: The Church can be found everywhere. In Rome, a suburban Parish, in the Amazon Jungle, yet they are all completely united under Christ. Apostolic meaning: You can trace back her descent all the way back to the first Apostles.

Why is the Catholic Church universal?

That the Catholic Church is "universal" is one of the four "marks", or distinguishing qualities of the Church. Along with being universal, the Church is also one, holy, and apostolic. The Catechsim of the Catholic Church, in it's treatment on the four marks, says this about "Catholic": 830 The word "catholic" means "universal," in the sense of "according to the totality" or "in keeping with the whole." The Church is catholic in a double sense: First, the Church is catholic because Christ is present in her. "Where there is Christ Jesus, there is the Catholic Church."307 In her subsists the fullness of Christ's body united with its head; this implies that she receives from him "the fullness of the means of salvation"308 which he has willed: correct and complete confession of faith, full sacramental life, and ordained ministry in apostolic succession. The Church was, in this fundamental sense, catholic on the day of Pentecost309 and will always be so until the day of the Parousia.831 Secondly, the Church is catholic because she has been sent out by Christ on a mission to the whole of the human race:310 : All men are called to belong to the new People of God. This People, therefore, while remaining one and only one, is to be spread throughout the whole world and to all ages in order that the design of God's will may be fulfilled: he made human nature one in the beginning and has decreed that all his children who were scattered should be finally gathered together as one. . . . The character of universality which adorns the People of God is a gift from the Lord himself whereby the Catholic Church ceaselessly and efficaciously seeks for the return of all humanity and all its goods, under Christ the Head in the unity of his Spirit.311
