Mykola Tsehelskyi

Mykola Tsehelskyi (; December 17, 1896 May 25, 1951), sometimes rendered as Nicholas Tsehelskyi, was a Ukrainian Greek Catholic priest, considered to be a martyr by the Catholic Church for his refusal to convert even under duress.

Tsehelskyi was born on December 17, 1896 in the village of Strusiv, Ternopil Region in what was then Austria-Hungary. In 1923, he graduated from the Lviv University's theology faculty. On April 5, 1925, Andrey Sheptytsky ordained Tsehelskyi to the priesthood. He was assigned to a parish.

He served as a parish priest in Soroka, Hrymailivsk deanery and later as the pastor of the Archeparchy of Lviv. After his imprisonment, his family was exiled to Chita in Russia.

While in prison, Tsehelskyi wrote to his wife, saying "My dearest wife, the feast of the Dormition was our 25th wedding anniversary. I recall fondly our family life together, and every day in my dreams I am with you and the children, and this makes me happy […] I happily give a fatherly kiss to all their foreheads and I hope to live honestly, behaving blamelessly, keeping far from everything that is foul. I pray for this most of all."

On April 24, 2001, Pope John Paul II officially recognised him as a martyr of the faith.
