One of the great moments in the history of the Catholic Church in America is the installation of Archbishop Charles Chaput as the Archbishop of Philadelphia, which took place on the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Basilica of Ss. Peter & Paul is the site of the installation Mass, and the cornerstone of the basilica was laid by St. John Neumann, one of Archbishop Chaput's predecessors.
