It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. By Canon Law (Church Law), an oil lamp, know as a Sanctuary lamp, must always be burning before the Blessed Sacrament. This is usually a clear or red glass lamp on or above the altar where the Blessed Sacrament is reposed.
