PENANG: A tooth relic of Saint Jacques Chastan from France is among the exhibits in the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church’s new mini museum in Pulau Tikus. 

The church’s parish pastoral council chairman, Paul Seah, said Jacques, who served the church as its fourth parish priest from 1830 to 1833, was martyred in Korea while trying to protect the Christian faith.
