Martyr Trophimus and 14 Others in Lycia
Troparion — Tone 4
Your holy martyr Trophimus and his companions, O Lord, / through their sufferings have received incorruptible crowns from You, our God. / For having Your strength, they laid low their adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through their intercessions, save our souls!
Hieromartyr Apollinaris, Bishop of Ravenna
Troparion — Tone 4
By sharing in the ways of the Apostles, / you became a successor to their throne. / Through the practice of virtue, you found the way to divine contemplation, O inspired one of God; / by teaching the word of truth without error, you defended the Faith, / even to the shedding of your blood. / Hieromartyr Apollinaris, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
Icon of the Mother of God “the Joy of All who Sorrow” (with coins) in St. Petersburg
Troparion — Tone 8
Let all of us, priests and monks, men, women, and children, the healthy and the sick, / turn in repentance to the ever-flowing fountain of mercy, the Most Pure Virgin Theotokos, / crying out and humbly saying, "O Sovereign Lady, help your sinful servants, / as your glory is revealed, be ever merciful to us, / and entreat the purification of our souls and bodies from the Fountain of our life, / the God to Whom you gave birth, O only Blessed One."
Kontakion — Tone 6
We have no other help, we have no other hope, but you, O Lady. / Help us, for in you we hope, / and of you we boast, for we are your servants. / Let us not be put to shame.
Hieromartyr Vitalius, Bishop of Ravenna
Troparion — Tone 4
By sharing in the ways of the Apostles, / you became a successor to their throne. / Through the practice of virtue, you found the way to divine contemplation, O inspired one of God; / by teaching the word of truth without error, you defended the Faith, / even to the shedding of your blood. / Hieromartyr Vitalius, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
Icon of the Mother of God of Pochaev
Troparion — Tone 5
Those who pray before your holy Icon, O Sovereign Lady, / are granted healing and receive knowledge of the true Faith; / and they repel the attacks of the Hagarenes.* / Therefore, entreat the remission of sins for us who fall down before you, and enlighten our hearts to thoughts of piety; / and offer up supplication to your Son for the salvation of our souls.
Kontakion — Tone 1
Your Pochaev Icon, O Theotokos, has been shown as a source of healing, and a confirmation of the Orthodox Faith. / Therefore, deliver us who come to it from misfortune and danger; / preserve your Lavra unharmed; / strengthen Orthodoxy in the neighboring lands; / and, by your prayers, free your suppliants from sins; / for you can do whatever you desire.
* The descendants of Hagar, Abraham's concubine.
N. B.: This Service is sung on July 23, when the Mother of God appeared above the church in Pochaev in 1675 and put the Moslems to flight. The miraculous Pochaev Icon is also commemorated on the Feast of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos (September 8), and on Bright Friday (the commemoration of her appearance and footprint). On those days, however, the service is done according to the Menaion and the Triodion.
Saint Anna of Leukadio
Troparion — Tone 8
By a flood of tears you made the desert fertile, / and your longing for God brought forth fruits in abundance. / By the radiance of miracles you illumined the whole universe! / O our holy mother Anna, pray to Christ our God to save our souls!
