De Teruel.<ref name="Our Member Churches">{{Cite web |title=Our Member Churches |url=https://nccphilippines.org/about-us/our-member-churches/ |access-date=2022-10-04 |language=en-US}}</ref> In 1991, the organisation and the [[Roman Catholic Church]] had a [[schism]]; due to varying issues, it formally separated itself from the Roman Catholic Church, when [[John Florentine Teruel]] was consecrated as a patriarch and registered the church as a [[Protestant]] and [[Independent Catholic]] denomination.<ref name="Our Member Churches" /> The Church describes itself as a Conservative Church which aims to bring back Ancient Catholic Church traditions removed by previous councils and Popes.
