Saint Tarasius, Archbishop of Constantinople - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 3

You shone forth as a light of the Spirit, / adorned with an exemplary life and clothed in hierarchical vesture. / You stilled the turbulence of heresy / and became a pillar and foundation of the Church, / which praises your struggles, holy Father Tarasius.

Kontakion — Tone 3

You illumined the Church with Orthodox doctrine / and taught all to venerate and honor the precious image of Christ. / You vanquished the godless doctrine of the iconoclasts. / Therefore we cry to you: / “Rejoice, wise Father Tarasius.”
