Sacred Objects Stolen from Church in Kuckum

On November 17th unknown perpetrators broke into the church in Kuckum. It was the second time the church was broken into and various liturgical objects were stolen. A local community offered 1000 Euros as a reward for the replacement of the objects, including the stolen monstrance.
"These gilded metal sculptures and vessels have a rather ideal value, neither artistically nor materially. Nevertheless, they belong in our village, it is our common property - and for us Kuckumers these things build a bridge to our past. "
