Pope to Canonize First Millennial and Digital Saints in 2025

Carlo Acutis, a London-born teenager known as "God's influencer," will be canonized as the first millennial saint by the Catholic Church in April. Acutis, who died of leukemia at 15, was recognized for his online work documenting Eucharistic miracles and creating websites for Catholic organizations. He was beatified in 2020 after a miracle was attributed to him, and a second miracle in 2024 cleared the way for his sainthood. Pope Francis announced the canonization, highlighting Acutis's influence as the "patron saint of the internet."

"Uncorrupted Body of Dead Nun Draws Crowds to Missouri Town"

The exhumed body of a nun, Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster, who died in 2019, has drawn hundreds of travelers to a small town in Missouri after it was found to be nearly perfectly preserved with no signs of natural decay. The impressive preservation of her body is seen as a miracle and could warrant a "well-established process to pursue the cause for sainthood," according to the diocese. Sister Lancaster was the founder of the Benedictine Sisters of Mary, Queen of the Apostles.

"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.
