Venerable Gerasimus of the Jordan - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 1

(Podoben: “When the stone had been sealed...”)
O citizen of the desert and angel in the body, / you were shown to be a wonderworker, O God-bearing Gerasimos, our Father. / You received heavenly gifts through fasting, vigil, and prayer, / healing the sick, and the souls of those who run to you with faith. / Glory to Him Who strengthened you. / Glory to Him Who crowned you. / Glory to Him Who, through you, works healing for all.

Kontakion — Tone 4

Aflame with heavenly love, / you preferred the severity of the Jordanian desert to all worldly pleasures, / thus, a lion served you obediently and devotedly until your death, O Father; / and then, grief-stricken, it died on your grave. / Therefore, God has glorified you. / Pray to Him for us, and remember us, O Father Gerasimos.
