History

[edit]

The North American Old Catholic Church was formed in January 2007 inLouisville, Kentucky, as a community ofindependent Catholic churches, with Archbishop Michael Seneco being elected as the community's firstpresiding bishop.[1][2] This United States-based organization traced its history to an 1870 movement in theNetherlands that dissented from theRoman Catholic Church largely over the1869 First Vatican Council doctrine ofpapal infallibility,[2][3][4] adogma of the Catholic Church which states that thepope is preserved from the possibility of error in certain circumstances.[5]

In 2009, the group included twenty Old Catholic churches in the United States,[6] withWashington, D.C.,Texas, andMaryland each having two parishes,Florida having three, and the rest located in other states.[4]
