Paragraph 3. THE CHURCH IS ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC
833
The phrase “particular church,” which is the diocese (or eparchy),
refers to a community of the Christian faithful in communion of faith and
sacraments with their bishop ordained in apostolic succession.313 These
particular Churches “are constituted after the model of the universal
Church; it is in these and formed out of them that the one and unique Catholic
Church exists.”314
