abstract
  • The Romanian Orthodox Episcopate of America is one of the ethnic dioceses of the OCA, covering all of North America and overlapping with its regular dioceses. Its current hierarch is Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) of Detroit, assisted by his auxiliary, Bishop Irineu (Duvlea) of Dearborn Heights. The origins of the Episcopate began with the arrival in America of Orthodox Romanian immigrants from Transylvania, Bukovina, Banat, and Macedo-Romania in the years before World War I. As many of these immigrants arrived with the intent of returning to their European homelands after working in America not many organized parishes or built churches. With the founding of an independent Romania after World War I, many of these immigrants did return to Europe.
