Nikolaj Velimirović (Serbian Cyrillic: Николај Велимировић; 4 January 1881 – 18 March 1956) was bishop of the eparchies of Ohrid and Žiča (1920–1956) in the Serbian Orthodox Church. An influential theological writer and a highly gifted orator, he was often referred to as the new John Chrysostom. As a young man, he came close to dying of dysentery and decided that he would dedicate his life to God if he survived. He lived and was tonsured as a monk under the name Nikolaj in 1909. He was ordained into the clergy, and quickly became an important leader and spokesperson for the Serbian Orthodox Church, especially in its relations with the West. When Nazi Germany occupied Yugoslavia in World War II, Velimirović was imprisoned and eventually taken to Dachau concentration camp. After the war he chose not to return to communist Yugoslavia, and moved to the US instead. He died there 1956. He was proclaimed a saint by Serbian Orthodox Church in 2003.
