The Church, no, It was an ethnic French bishop who supported the British who condemned Joan to death for heresy, not the Church. When an investigation was completed 25 years after Joan's death, Joan was found to have been innocent of all charges but the bishop was found to have been guilty of heresy instead.
In Orleans, France, there is a month long celebration including a huge parade. Joan liberated Orleans may 8th, 1429. So the parade and celebration is around that date. Other cities in France have parades and less elaborate ways to celebrate Joan of Arc. Almost all towns, small and large have statues of Joan of Arc. The previous answer that French people go to church is wrong.
Joan of arc's brothers' names were Pierre, Jacqumine and Jean
Arc de Triomph, Joan of Arc and Les Arcs the French Alps

The hundreds' years war
Joan was not tried for being a witch, she was tried for being a heretic by a bishop who was a British sympathizer. 20 years after her death an inquiry was again opened by the Church and she was found innocent of all charges. Of course, this was 20 years too late for Joan.
Joan and her family were named as nobility by Charles VII. It is believed that this is where the title d'Arc came from. After her death Joan was eventually named a saint by the Catholic Church.
Her goal was to drive the British out of France and restore the French monarchy.
She wanted to drive the British out of France and restore the French monarchy.
She was treated very well at home because she did everything her parents told her to do. The Church however, when she told then of her visions did not. They thought she was crazy.
23 years after her death, Pope Calixtus III ordered an inquiry into Joan's trial and execution. Two years later Joan was exonerated of all charges and declared a martyr. The bishop who had tried her was declared to have been a heretic by ordering the death of an innocent person.
Joan of Arc was excommunicated because she refused to submit to the authority of the Church during her trial. The Church accused her of heresy and witchcraft, and when she refused to recant her claims of divine inspiration, they saw her as a threat and excommunicated her. However, her excommunication was later revoked posthumously.
