On May 4, 2017, Pope Francis signed the Decree of Beatification for Mother Adèle de Batz de Trenquelléon. Adèle (as she is fondly known in the Chaminade family), received a favorable judgement on May 2 from the Cardinals and Bishops who are members of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints.

Mother Adèle was born on June 10, 1789 and is a founder of the Daughters of Mary Immaculate. The Marianists are currently celebrating the bicentennial anniversary of the Daughters of Mary Immaculate (May 25, 1816) and The Society of Mary (October 2, 1817).
