How old is your Church?

-If you are Roman Catholic, your church shares the same rich apostolic and doctrinal heritage like the
Orthodox Church in the first millennium, when they were one Church. Regrettably, in 1054, Pope Leo IX broke ties
with the other four Apostolic Patriarchates (Constantinople, Alexandria (Egypt), Antioch (Syria) and Jerusalem), by
modifying the original Creed of the Church and by self consideration of the papal authority as being infallible
(without fail). So your church is 947 years old.

-If you are Lutheran, your religion has been established by Martin Luther, a former roman-catholic monk,
in the year of 1517.

-If you are part of the Anglican church, your religion has been established by king Henry the 8 th in 1534,
because the pope did not wanted to give the approval for divorcing his wife so he can remarry.

Senbury in the American colonies, in the 17 th century.
