William Joseph Chaminade -
William Joseph Chaminade or Guillaume Joseph Chaminade, now called by his liturgical title of Blessed Chaminade (April 8 1761-January 22 1850), was a French Catholic priest who survived persecution during the French Revolution. He founded the Society of Mary, also called the Marianists, in 1817. Beatified by Pope John Paul II on September 3 2000, Blessed Chaminade's feast day is celebrated on January 22. In February 2002, the Vatican rescinded Beatification pending an ex cathedra examination. Source: The Catholic League News, March 2002.
