TL;DR Summary

Thousands of Catholics are flocking to a rural Missouri monastery to see the exhumed body of Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster, a nun who died in 2019 at the age of 95 and whose body shows almost no signs of decomposition four years later. Lancaster's remains will be placed in a glass case on Monday, and many Catholics believe her lack of decay is a miracle and that she could be a modern-day saint. However, the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph has approached the matter with caution, and scientists say a lack of decomposition even years later isn't all too rare.
