Marko Ivan Rupnik (born 28 November 1954) is a Slovenian Catholic priest, theologian, mosaic artist, and former Jesuit. Among the churches he has decorated around the world are the Saint John Paul II National Shrine in Washington D.C., the Redemptoris Mater Chapel in the Vatican's Apostolic Palace, the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, the Sanctuary of Fátima, the Sanctuary of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, the Almudena Cathedral in Madrid.[1] He was the director of Centro Aletti in Rome and was a theological student of Tomáš Špidlík.
In December 2022, Rupnik's brief excommunication due to the ecclesiastical crime of absolution of an accomplice and allegations about sexual misconduct became public knowledge. He was expelled from the Society of Jesus on June 15, 2023, for "stubborn refusal to observe the vow of obedience", by decree of the superior general Arturo Sosa.[2] In October 2023, the Vatican case against Rupnik was reopened.[3]
