Yesterday I happened upon this short YouTube video about a few of the incorruptibles -- very holy souls whose bodies do not decompose after their death.
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgW_JjCxuWA
Below I've indicated which of the figures shown in the video I've been able to visit over the years.
St. Pio of Pietrelcina (1887-1968): a.k.a. Padre Pio, a stigmatist. He is in Italy, and is on the list of saints I hope to visit one day.
St. John Marie Vianney (1786-1859): Ars, France in 2010
St. Catherine Laboure (1806-1876): Paris, France in 2008
St. Don Bosco (1815-1888): Turin, Italy in 2010
St. Vincent de Paul (1580-1623): Paris, France in 2008
Ven. Maria de Jesus de Agreda (1602-1665) and St. Veronica Giuliani (1660-1727): they are in Spain and Italy, respectively. I have not visited them.
St. Bernadette Soubirous (1844-1879): She is originally from Lourdes, France. I visited her at her convent in Nevers in 2010.
Not pictured are St. Pius V (1504-1572) and St. Pius X (1835-1914), two incorrupt Popes I visited in Rome in 2000 and again in 2005.
