"Exhumed nun's uncorrupted body draws crowds to rural Missouri town"

The Catholic Church has launched an investigation into the uncorrupted body of Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster, a Benedictine nun who was buried without embalming and in a simple wooden casket. Her body has remained intact for four years, which is considered a possible sign of sainthood in Catholicism. The investigation was commissioned after her remains were exhumed last week. The deceased nun's body has been on open-air display for visitations and veneration by Catholic pilgrims. Her order plans to hold a precession in her honor and enclose the body in a glass case to better accommodate pilgrims making their way to the monastery in Gower, Missouri.
