There is a Lutheran Church and a Catholic Church but no Lutheran Catholic Church.
There is no "Roman" Catholic Church: Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. The Chaldean Catholic Church is part of the Catholic Church.
The Catholic church favors the Natural Family Planning method of controlling pregnancies. This works by avoiding intercourse during certain phases of a woman's menstrual cycle.
The name of the yearly cycle that the Roman Catholic Church undergoes is called the Liturgical Year. There are several Liturgical Seasons celebrated during the Mass and throughout her Liturgy. They are written in order: Advent/Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent/Easter, Pentecost (for one week, the Church offers Mass for Pentecost), and Ordinary Time. The Liturgical Year ends on the last week of Ordinary Time, on the feast of Christ the King. Then, the Liturgical Cycle begins again with Advent. It is noteworthy to mention that the Church creates a new Paschal Candle with the current year at the Easter Vigil, on the night before Easter Sunday. There is also a Cycle with the Gospels: Cycle A, Cycle B, Cycle C. In each of these cycles, which changes as does the Liturgical Year, different Gospel authors are read at the Liturgies. I hope this answers your question.

No, a Catholic should not receive communion in anything but a Catholic Church.
The pope is the head of the Catholic Church. There is only one Catholic Church and it is not a sect. To be a Catholic Church, a church must be in union with the pope. If they are not in union with the pope, they are not Catholic.
The " catholic " in the creed has a lower case C..... therefore this is the universal church, not the actual Catholic Church. So catholic = Universal Church Catholic = The Catholic Church ( The one with the Pope )
