The Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Buenos Aires, South and Central America (Serbian: Српска православна епархија буеносајреска и јужноцентралноамеричка, Spanish: Diócesis de Buenos Aires Patriarcado Ortodoxo Serbio) is a Serbian Orthodox Church eparchy (diocese) with the main headquarters located in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The diocese has 20 churches in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Ecuador, El Salvador, Colombia and Peru. On October 13, 2012, was realized the first session of diocese under the rule of the actual administration of Metropolitan bishop Amfilohije Radović.[1][2][3][4] The decision of the Holy Assembly of Bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church brought in May 2018 elected Kirilo Bojović the first Serbian Bishop of Buenos Aires and South-Central America. He was enthroned in the Cathedral church of Nativity of Virgin in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on 4 September 2018.[5]
For members of Serbian and Montenegrin diaspora in Argentina, Orthodox Christian religion acts as a very significant ethnic symbol. Therefore, as the most important element of social and cultural life the emigrants emphasized existence of Serbian Orthodox Church, since the need for group "survival" (according to the research[6]), throughout history and today, manifested itself through organizing and gathering mostly in the Serbian Orthodox Church and then in homeland's clubs.[7]
