2. **1842 - September 19:** Seelos entered the diocesan seminary and was later touched by the letters of Redemptorist missionaries in the United States. He decided to join the Redemptorist congregation and work as a missionary in the United States.

7. **2000 - April 9:** Pope John Paul II beatified Seelos in St. Peter's Square, inviting the Church to deepen their union with Christ through Seelos's intercession.
8. **Veneration:** Seelos is commemorated in the Martyrology on October 5. The National Shrine of Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos is located in St. Mary's Assumption Church in New Orleans. St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in New Orleans was renamed Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos Catholic Church in his honor.
