The word "stoup" has its roots in the Latin word "stips," which referred to a donation or contribution. In the early days of Christianity, it became customary for people to offer gifts or contributions to the church. These offerings were often placed in a basin or font filled with holy water. Over time, these basins became known as "stoups" and were used for ritual purification before entering a sacred space.
