Religious body in the United States. The Lithuanian National Catholic Church in America, organized by the Right Reverend S. B. Mickiewicz, and the Polish Catholic Church in America have been merged into the Old Catholic Church in America. They accept the seven general councils, in accord with the Old Catholic churches in Europe, and use the Niceno-Constantinopolitan creed.
