The Serbian True Orthodox Church (Serbian Cyrillic: Српска Истинска Православна Црква) is a denomination that separated from the Serbian Orthodox Church in 1996. Its founder and current leader is bishop Akakije. The members refer to themselves as revnitelji ('consistent', 'persistent'); they are informally called ziloti ('zealots') by the public. The church is part of the traditionalist True Orthodoxy movement, a loose group of Orthodox sects which resist ecumenism and other attempts of modernization within the mainstream churches.
