Sorry, it is non-denominational, but still an interesting history.

The Apostle St. Peter founded the Catholic Church, as compelled by the savior Jesus when Peter was given the keys to heaven.
Sometime around 30-40 c.e.

I am Roman Catholic. The Catholic Church was founded when Jesus Christ gave authority to Peter to lead the Church on Earth and sent forth the Apostles with the Great Comission (preaching the gospel and forgiveing sins) after breathing on them and giving them the gift of the Holy Ghost.
So how old? Almost 2000 years.

The United Church of Christ, also called Congregational, was created by those that came over on the Mayflower. Lead by William Brewster. Back then church services lasted most of the day.

I am Roman Catholic.
If you ask Evangelicals, or Fundamentalists, they will tell you that the Roman Emperor Constantine founded the Roman Catholic Church in the 4th. Century AD.
