Church of St. Panteleimon (Serbian Cyrillic: Црква светог Пантелејмона, Croatian: Crkva svetog Panelejmona) known also as Vodica (Serbian Cyrillic: Водица) in Mirkovci in eastern Croatia is a secondary Serbian Orthodox church of the local parish Church of St. Nicholas.

Contemporary church at the site of a water source was constructed in 1910.[1] The church is used by orthodox population of Mirkovci and the rest of Syrmia for summer celebration of Saint Pantaleon.[2] The site is known of its tilia veteran tree.[2] The church is located outside of the village and off the main D46 road in village's field estate.[3]

The church uses certain gothic revival architectural elements (notably windows) which are not commonly found in Eastern Orthodox sacral architecture.
