Since January 1928, part of the remains of Brésillac have been interred in the chapel of the Society of African Missions in Lyon, France. A process of his canonisation for sainthood in the Roman Catholic Church has since been introduced. The inquiry for his beatification was concluded in May 2000. All documents have been handed over to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints and await further action. Pope Francis recognized him as Venerable on 27 May 2020.
