Translation of the Relics of the holy and wonderworking Unmercenaries Cyrus and John
Troparion — Tone 5
O Christ God, / You have given us the miracles of Your martyrs, Cyrus and John, / as an invincible rampart; / through their prayers, frustrate the plans of the heathens, / and strengthen the faith of the Orthodox Christians, / for You alone are good and love mankind.
Kontakion — Tone 3
(Podoben: “Today the Virgin...”)
Having received the gift of miracles through divine grace, O saints, / you work wonders in the world unceasingly. / You remove all of our passions through your invisible surgery, / divinely-wise Cyrus and glorious John, / for you are truly divine physicians.
Venerable Xenophon, Abbot of Robeika, Novgorod
Troparion — Tone 4
You appeared as a splendid growth in the wilderness, Venerable Father, / for from your youth you chose a life of purity, following your spiritual instructor, / and by his admonitions, you turned your mind to heavenly things. / You dwelt in the wilderness and there you founded a monastery, becoming a wise counselor for your flock, / shining as a bright lamp in Great Novgorod with honor and strength. / Therefore, Christ enriched you with miracles and glorified you. / O Xenophon our Father, pray to Christ God for the salvation of our souls.
Venerable Sergius and Herman, Wonderworkers of Valaam
Troparion — Tone 4
Fulfilling the Gospel of Christ and loving him alone, / despising earthly cares you settled on an island. / There you fought against the invisible foe, / subjecting your bodies to the Spirit by fasting, vigil and prayer. / Crowned with glory and now standing before the Trinity, / pray, O Fathers Sergius and Herman, / that our souls may be saved!
Kontakion — Tone 4
You left the world to follow in Christ’s footsteps, / reaching Lake Neva and the island of Valaam. / There you lived the angelic life / and were translated to the heavenly bridal chamber. / As you stand with the angels remember the children whom you gathered, / that we may joyfully cry to you: / Rejoice, blessed Fathers Sergius and Herman!”
Saint Paul, Physician of Corinth
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 father Paul, pray to Christ our God to save our souls!
Icon of the Mother of God “Of the Three Hands”
Troparion — Tone 4
(Podoben: “Go quickly before...”)
From Palestine, the godly-minded Savva brought your divine Icon to us, / O holy Bride of God, known as the Icon “Of the Three Hands." / Wherefore, since the Monastery of Hilandar has acquired it as their boast, / they hymn you, O Theotokos, crying out in exultation: / Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you.
Kontakion — Tone 8
(Podoben: “O victorious Leader...”)
Come, let us venerate the most revered Icon of "Of the Three Hands” with faith and piety. / O Maiden, preserve your Monastery from all misfortunes and adversities, / and also those who cry to you; "Hail, defender of all."
Hieromartyr Basil
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 Basil, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
Holy Martyr Pappias
Troparion — Tone 3
Your holy martyr Pappias, O Lord, / through his sufferings has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God. / For having Your strength, he laid low his adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through his intercessions, save our souls!
Kontakion — Tone 2
(Podoben: “You sought the heights...”)
You appeared as a bright star announcing Christ with your radiance, / which is repulsive to this world, O Martyr Pappias; / extinguishing the allure of false gods, / you enlighten the faithful, / always interceding for us all.
Venerable Confessor Sergius of Paphlagonia
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 Sergius, 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 Sergius.
