Sofroni wa Yerusalemu

(Elekezwa kutoka Sophronius of Jerusalem)

Sofroni wa Yerusalemu (Damasko, Syria[1], 560 hivi - Yerusalemu, Israeli/Palestina, 11 Machi 638) alikuwa askofu wa Yerusalemu kuanzia mwaka 634 hadi kifo chake[2][3]. Wakati huo Yerusalemu ulitekwa na Waarabu Waislamu naye alitetea imani na haki za wananchi dhidi ya wavamizi.

Mt. Sofroni alivyochorwa.

Kabla ya hapo alikuwa mwanafunzi wa Yohane Mosko akaongozana naye kutembelea monasteri nyingi, akawa mwalimu, halafu mmonaki mwanateolojia aliyetetea vizuri imani sahihi kuhusu Yesu Kristo kuwa na utashi wa kibinadamu chini ya ule wa Kimungu.

Tangu kale anaheshimiwa na Waorthodoksi na Wakatoliki kama mtakatifu.

Sikukuu yake huadhimishwa tarehe 11 Machi[4].
