Podcast: Beatification Memories (Interviews Commemorating the 20th Anniversary of Chaminade's Beatification)On September 3rd, 2000, Father Chaminade was Beatified along with five other holy people during a Mass in St. Peter's Square. Pope St. John Paul II was the presider, and he noted that Blessed Chaminade was an "apostle of the laity."
