A Vatican investigator is expected to arrive in Colwyn, Kansas this Friday to investigate the miraculous recovery of a 20 year-old man who suffered catastrophic head injuries during a pole-vault accident in October. The family prayed to a fellow Kansan, Rev. Emil Kapaun, a U.S. Army chaplain from Pilsen, Kansas, who died in a Korean prison camp and whose cause for sainthood is currently under investigation.
