What's in our collection Wednesday!

What's in our collection Wednesday! Today we are highlighting these candlesticks in our collection. 🕯
While these plain metal candlesticks might seem insignificant they were used at Scalan, an important part of Scottish Catholic history. The Reformation in the mid-16th century made the Catholic faith illegal in Scotland. The seminary at Scalan was one of the few places where the Catholicism was taught and practiced in secret, thus keeping the faith alive. ✝
