Nikanor (Savic)

Venerable

Spomen mart 4

The Venerable Father Nikanor (Savic) of Athos, Australia and New Zealand was the Abbot of Hilandar before moving to Australia to pacify the schism between the Patriarchal Diocese and the New Gracanica Metropolitanate's Diocese. He reposed in 1990, was glorified by the Church of Serbia around 2010, and celebrated each year on March 4 (both calendars). As at October 2011, he is the first and only glorified Saint connected with Australia.
