"Unexplained Preservation: Nun's Body Defies Decay in Kansas City Church"
The Abbey of Our Lady of Ephesus in Kansas City, Missouri, is allowing visitors to see the body of Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster, a nun who died four years ago and has been found to be almost perfectly preserved. The abbey believes that Sister Lancaster might be an "incorruptible," a term used to describe bodies that do not decompose entirely after death. If confirmed, she would be the first Black and American "incorruptible." The abbey plans to inquire about the possibility of canonizing Sister Lancaster as a saint in the future.
