Nicholas of Japan
Saint Nicholas, Equal-to-the-Apostles, Archbishop of Japan, born Ivan Dimitrovich Kasatkin ((ロシア語:Иван Дмитриевич Касаткин); – February 16, 1912) was a Russian Orthodox priest, monk, bishop, and saint. He introduced the Eastern Orthodox Church to Japan.〔''"Святый Николае, иерарше равноапостольне... молися о всем мире", Pravoslavie.RU, February 2007, in Russian''〕 The Orthodox cathedral of Tokyo (metropolitan diocese of Japan), Tokyo Resurrection Cathedral, was informally named after him as ''Nikorai-do'', first by the local community, and today nationwide, in remembrance of his work.
==Early life==
Nicholas was born in the Smolensk prefecture in the Russian Empire to Dimitry Kasatkin, a Russian Orthodox deacon. His mother died when he was five years old. He grew up in the church hierarchy: in 1857 he entered the Theological Academy in Saint Petersburg. On July 7, 1860 (July 19 in the Gregorian calendar), he became a monk and chose the name of Nicholas. Nicholas was ordained a deacon on July 12 (July 24) in the same year, on the feast day of Saints Peter and Paul. He was ordained a priest the next day, on the feast day of the Holy Apostles, the commemoration day of the Academy's Chapel of the Holy Apostles.
