NEW YORK – After a review process, the Knights of Columbus have announced that they will cover in fabric mosaic artwork in worship spaces at the Saint John Paul II National Shrine in Washington, D.C., and in the Holy Family Chapel at the Knights’ headquarters in New Haven, Connecticut.

The artwork was installed at each location in 2015. The artwork will remain covered at least until the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) issues its decision on the pending sexual abuse cases against artist Father Marko Rupnik, at which time a permanent plaster covering may be in order.
