In a document from 1757, it is mentioned that the ruler of Moldavia Constantin Racoviță donated to the church dedicated to "Saints Archangels Michael and Gabriel" "a piece of land from the border of the Sorocii market". A year earlier, the same ruler had granted the Huși Diocese "a piece of land from the Soroca market". He also shows the borders: from the Rubleniță border, on the Racovăț stream, to the Dniester and then on the river bank up to the border of the Cosăuți, the estate of Neculai Racoviță, biv vel medelnicer. Therefore, these lands belonged to the Racoviță family, hence the name of the stream that separated the market from that piece of land which was then a slum of his, and in 1772-1773 it was registered with the name Bojureuca, with 40 houses. and hut.
It was therefore a small settlement, whose inhabitants crossed the stream and quickly reached the church in the market. However, attempts were made to open a church here as well. The information in question is contained in a report by Archpriest Vasile Purișchevici from the cathedral in Chișinău, addressed to Archbishop Dimitrie on April 20, 1836. Informing him about the death of the parish priest of the “Annunciation” church in Chișinău, Archpriest Constantin Moșan, the author of the report writes that from the latter’s documents it is seen that in 1808 he was ordained by Bishop Meletie of Huși for the “St. Dumitru” church in the Soroca region, and then Metropolitan Gavriil Bănulescu-Bodoni of Chișinău and Hotin transferred him to the “Assumption of the Virgin Mary” church in the market. Probably, the little church of “St. Dumitru” was located in Bujorăuca. But it was too small and no longer satisfied the demands of the growing number of parishioners. This circumstance, as well as the Christian soul, prompted the parish priest Nicolae Cerchez, who had owned the estate since 1814, to do something pleasing to God and people. He built a church at his own expense, consecrated in 1827 with the patron saint of “Saint Dumitru”. The first priest was Gheorghe Vasile Mardare, mentioned in 1833. The founder of the church, Nicolae Cerchez, as Gheorghe Bezviconi writes, was a Romanian of Circassian origin. In 1812, the parish priest Nicolae Cerchez settled in Bessarabia, swore allegiance to the Russian Tsar. He had estates in Bujorăuca and RediuMare, was recognized as a nobleman, in 1818-1821 he was a counselor of the 1st department of the regional government, in 1825-1828 – deputy of the Supreme Council of the Bessarabian region. One of his sons, Alexandru, became a major general in Moscow. Another, who was called Iorgu and Iordache or Gheorghe at home, became a captain and took the name Egor. The third, Costache, remained in Soroca.
In 1836, the cloister Nicolae Cerchez died and his estates were divided between his sons. Alexandru got Bujorăuca. Costache bought the market and the Soroca estate. Alexandru Cerchez became the founder of the church "Saint Dumitru". Until 1860, priest Constantin Homițchi served here.
On March 10, 1860, priest Efimie Jolondcovschi was transferred to Bujorăuca from the village of Bârnova (now Ocnița district). Over time, he would also become archpriest of the church circle (1868). His name is found in several documents relating to this and other churches in the county. Together with him, the singers Pantelimon Burjacovschi and Zaharia Fiodor Țurcan served. The latter ceased his activity in 1891.
Starting in 1897, for almost half a century, the village and the church will be under the spiritual leadership of the Dumbravă priest dynasty. Father Mihail Dumbravă served as parish priest of the church for 48 years. It is worth mentioning that in 1920, Father Mihail Dumbravă was appointed archpriest of the churches of the 1st circle in Soroca county. In 1945, Father Valentin Dumbravă, the son of Father Mihail Dumbravă, was appointed parish priest of the church.
The prohibitions imposed on the church by the Soviet authorities resulted in the suspension of religious services in June 1959 and the closure of the "Saint Dumitru" church on April 14, 1960.
The church was reopened in September 1992, with priest Nicolae Panas appointed as parish priest. It was consecrated in 1993 by Archimandrite Marchell (Mihăescu), and in 1994 re-consecrated by His Holiness Vladimir, Metropolitan of Chișinău and All Moldova. At the same time, priest Nicolae Panas was appointed archpriest of Soroca. In 2000, the parish house was built.
On July 23, 2010, archpriest Nicolae Craveț, archpriest of Soroca, was appointed as parish priest of this church by metropolitan decree.
