Saint Athanasius of Meteora - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 3
You are an unshakable pillar, a steadfast wall, / a battlement and protection for your flock, O wise Athanasios. / Shelter us beneath the wings of your intercessions with Christ God, / O Righteous Father, / for we lovingly praise and glorify your memory.
Kontakion — Tone 2
(Podoben: “Seeking the things on high...”)
Desiring the things of Heaven, you took up your abode on high; / disdaining earthly things, you wove a basket / whereby you lifted up a multitude of monastics to the heights of dispassion, / and offered them as an acceptable gift to Christ our God.
