Thousands of people have flocked to a remote rural Missouri community because of a strange phenomenon. This fascinating journey is focused on Sister Wilhemina Lancaster, a devoted Catholic nun. But there’s a catch to this amazing tale: Sister Wilhelmina passed away in 2019.
On May 29, 2019, Sister Wilhemina Lancaster, an OSB (Order of the Most Holy Rosary) member, passed away peacefully. She was 95 years old.
Her mortal remains had only slightly decomposed since then, according to the Catholic News Agency.
The Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles Monastery in the serene Missouri town of Gower received Sister Wilhemina’s physical vessel.
During the transfer of her remains to their chapel, an astonishing revelation happened. According to one of the sisters, “the cemetery staff had informed us to expect mere skeletal remains.”.
They were shocked to discover that Sister Wilhemina’s body had suffered only minor damage. She was not embalmed as is customary, and instead was buried in a simple wooden box after passing away.
If not for a mildew growth brought on by a breach in the casket, her bones would have been nearly flawless.
The witness exclaimed, “I couldn’t believe my eyes, for I saw what appeared to be a fully developed and spotless foot. Mother Cecilia, the overseeing abbess at OSB, was called to confirm the incredible sight. Closer examination revealed the truth.
The entire crowd was stunned.
In these trying times, people yearn for optimism. The existence of “incorruptible saints” is said to provide a glimpse into the afterlife and the bodily resurrection that is predicted by the Catholic faith. Because their bodies don’t show any signs of aging even years after they pass away, these people are referred to as being “incorruptible.”.
One of the most important connections to Christ is the absence of deterioration. Through canonization or beatification, over a hundred instances of incorruptible bodies have received official recognition.
Bishopric of Kansas City-St. In a statement, Joseph acknowledged the significance of the important issues and their high level of interest.
By performing a careful examination, they demonstrated how crucial it is to keep Sister Wilhemina’s mortal remains intact.

In the days leading up to Memorial Day alone, according to Clinton County Sheriff Larry Fish, there will be a massive influx of 10,000 to 15,000 people per day.
After being exposed to the public for several days, Sister Wilhemina’s body was gently placed in a glass case close to the chapel’s altar.
