Saint Ambrose, Bishop of Milan - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 4

The truth of things revealed you to your flock as a rule of faith, / a model of meekness, and a teacher of temperance. / Through humility, you attained the heights; / and through poverty, riches. / O Father and Hierarch Ambrose, intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.

Troparion — Tone 1

Let us all honor the glorious Hierarch Ambrose, / the namesake of ambrosia, the instructor of Italy, / the protector of Christ's Church, and leader of Milan, / a son of his diocese, and the greatest supporter of the poor, / for he intercedes with the Lord to have mercy on our souls.

Kontakion — Tone 3

(Podoben: “The Divine Faith...”)
Shining forth with godly doctrines, you drove off the darkness of the deception of Arius, / O shepherd and initiate of the sacred mysteries. / You worked miracles by the power of the Spirit, / wisely healing various passions; / O Righteous Father Ambrose, entreat Christ God to grant us great mercy.
