About
Jump to
Teofilius Matulionis (22 June 1873 – 20 August 1962) was a Lithuanian Roman Catholic archbishop. Matulionis studied abroad before his ordination to the priesthood and was consecrated in secret after Pope Pius XI nominated him to the episcopate; he was unable to exercise most of that time due to several arrests due to his defense of the faith and his pastoral activism which angered communist authorities. The bishop was arrested a further time after being tapped to head a Lithuanian diocese and his release saw him forbidden to return to his diocese; he died in isolation with an unidentified drug found in his bloodstream indicating he was murdered during a routine apartment check.
