Summary/Abstract: The 25th anniversary of the ordination of our Father Bishop, His Holiness Sofronie of Oradea, as a bishop, gives us the opportunity and the honor to reconnect the thread interrupted from the candle of the earthen lamp of the bishop`s cell in the citadel of Jula, making a foray into the Church history of this area from the time of the archpastorship from the middle of the 17th century of Metropolitan Bishop Sofronie I of the citadels of Lipova and Giula, until that of election, ordination and enthronement in 1999 from Giula, of His Holiness Sofronie Drincec.
