WP:NCHURCH; I could find nothing on this denomination apart from its website.
This denomination is not to be confused with the equally non-notable Nicene Apostolic Church, a.k.a. Nicene Catholic Apostolic Church (Autocephalous Catholic Church of Antioch) (see here) whose head is mentioned here.
I recommend deletion. Veverve (talk) 15:08, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep I was fully not expecting this to meet WP:GNG based on the wikipedia article, but there is a little bit of coverage in about it. I'll make a source assessment table to provide my arguments for this maybe passing WP:GNG. I don't love not having a good third source, but also with the extensive coverage in the first book, I feel that it is likely a third source is out there. snood1205 16:22, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Snood1205: Thanks for your great job! However, the second mention only gives a Wikipedia:Passing mention to the topic ("Gradually, each sister moved out on her own to continue to search out God’s will. After serving at the Catholic Apostolic Church of Antioch (not under Rome), Love began to explore her call within the RCWP community"), so I do not think this one counts as coverage.

@Veverve: Fair enough! I agree that is more of passing mention than I initially judged. I'll change that from yes to no for significant coverage for the second source. I'll still take a look to see if other sources are out there. snood1205 17:13, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: has its own entry in The Encyclopedia of Cults, Sects, and New Religions under "Church of Antioch". The article needs to be rewritten, though, to match that information. St Anselm (talk) 05:54, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep (only) -- The website appears to show a handful of real people undertaking Christian ministry in several countries. However, I see no links on the website to actual congregations, only that it claims to operate in several countries, with leaders using titles considerably above their likely prominence.

Keep as per the reliable book sources, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 09:12, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
