The Beatification♠ of John Henry Newman by Pope Benedict the XVI will take place on September 19, 2010 in Cofton Park in Birmingham, England. Here are some details on the event. His feast day will be 9 October, the date of his conversion to Roman Catholicism.
I have always been struck by John Henry Cardinal Newman, and his contemporary, Henry Edward Cardinal Manning. Both are converts to Roman Catholicism.
I am guessing "congratulations" is not the word for it, so I am going with "thanks be to God".
