Vox Clamantis: January 2025 — Scotland and the Holy Face

We in Tradition do not reject new things simply because they are new. Devotion to the Sacred Heart was ‘new’ a few centuries ago (in its present form). Similarly, in countries like Scotland, where Catholic devotion was proscribed by the secular government, many ancient practices were lost. Through various circumstances, I became aware of a particular Catholic devotion, which, along with so many others, was either unknown or neglected. This is devotion to the Holy Face.
