Nick Vujicic was born 4 December 1982 in Melbourne, Australia, to a devout Serbian Orthodox family. He lacks both arms and legs, and has two small feet, one of which has two toes. Victoria state law forbade him from attending a mainstream school because of his physical disability. But he overcame this and then was bullied. He grew extremely depressed, and by the age of 8, started contemplating suicide. After begging God to grow arms and legs, Nick eventually began to realize that his accomplishments were inspirational to many, and began to thank God for being alive.
Now Nick is a preacher, a motivational speaker and the director of Life Without Limbs, an organization for the physically disabled. He regularly gives speeches on disability and hope. He holds a degree with a double major in Accounting and Financial Planning. He has spoken to over two million people so far, in twelve countries on four continents.

I watched your video on face book and all I can ssy is thank you, you may have just saved my life I had just about completely given up on life, I don’t even know why I logged onto facebook I very rarely do. God bless you
Dinah, thanks for the comment. People who visit this site regularly pray for each other. So I’m sure you are in the thoughts and prayers of more people than you might expect.
Thank you for the post about Nick Vujicic. However, the post is mistaken on one point. Nick is not Serbian Orthodox and neither is his family. They are ethnic Serbian, but are part of the Apostolic Christian Church denomination, an Anabaptist group (known as Nazarenes in Eastern Europe). He continues to have his primary affiliation with this group as an ordained evangelist, but blesses many denominations with his ministry. See his book, “Life with out Limits” for more on his biography.
You are wrong. “Nick Vujicic was born 4 December 1982 in Melbourne, Australia, to a devout Serbian Orthodox family.” – this is absolutely correct. ; )
Thanks for your visit and comment here. Please use your ordinary name when commenting on this site. Blessings.

I think you mean to ask Nick Vujicic – this is not his website, I am merely including him in my website. I think you will have to search for his contact details. God bless you.
