Life
The holy hieromartyr Tihomir Nešković was a priest, a graduate theologian, parish priest at Janja, in the diocese of Zvornik-Tuzla, and is numbered among the new martyrs of that diocese. He studied at the Faculty of Theology in Belgrade in the 1930s. His commemoration belongs to the Synaxis of the Saints who taught and studied at the Theological School of Belgrade, whose celebration was ordered by Patriarch Porfirije in February 2024, pending the official decision.
The sources say only that he was a graduate of the Faculty of Theology in Belgrade and parish priest at Janja, and that he was killed in the time of the war; the book on the martyrs of Zvornik-Tuzla names him among those killed in the diocese. No other details of his life survive.
