Midfeast of Pentecost
Troparion — Tone 8
In the middle of the Feast, O Savior, / fill my thirsting soul with the waters of godliness, as You did cry to all: / If anyone thirst let him come to me and drink! / O Christ God, Fountain of our life, glory to You!
Kontakion — Tone 4
Christ God, the Creator and Master of all / cried to all in the midst of the Feast of the law: / Come and draw the water of immortality! / We fall before You and faithfully cry: / Grant us Your bounties, for You are the Fountain of our life!
Venerable Simeon Stylites the Younger of Wonderful Mountain
Troparion — Tone 1
Dweller of the desert and angel in the body, / you were shown to be a wonder-worker, our God-bearing Father Simeon. / You received heavenly gifts through fasting, vigil, and prayer: / healing the sick and the souls of those drawn to you by faith. / Glory to Him who gave you strength! / Glory to Him who granted you a crown! / Glory to Him who through you grants healing to all!
Kontakion — Tone 2
You longed for the things on high, / turning away from those below. / You built a pillar on which you lived as if in heaven, / shining with the splendor of miracles, venerable Simeon, / and unceasingly praying for us all to Christ, the God of all.
Venerable Niketas the Stylite, Wonderworker of Pereyaslavl, Zalesski
Troparion — Tone 4
Your Orthodox mind came to hate youthful passions and began to struggle courageously; / you defeated the Enemy, and in your diligence you pleased God. / From Him on high you received the gift of working miracles, / casting out demons, and healing diseases. / O glorious Nikḗtas, pray to Christ God that our souls may be saved.
Kontakion — Tone 8
For the sake of Christ, you suffered a violent death at the hands of your servants, / and received from Him an imperishable crown. / To those who come to your revered tomb with faith, you grant healing, / O Venerable Nikḗtas, intercessor for our souls.
Martyr Meletius Stratelates who suffered in Galatia, and those with him
Troparion — Tone 4
Your holy martyr Meletius 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!
Saint Vincent of Lerins
Troparion — Tone 8
In you, O Father, was preserved with exactness what was according to the image; / for you took up the Cross and followed Christ. / By so doing, you taught us to disregard the flesh, for it passes away; / but to care for the soul, since it is immortal. / Therefore, O Venerable Vincent, your spirit rejoices with the Angels.
Kontakion — Tone 2
Finding delight in abstinence, you subdued the desires of the flesh. / Revealed as one nurtured in the Faith, / you blossomed like the Tree of Life in Paradise, / O Holy Father Vincent.
