Afterfeast of the Transfiguration of our Lord
Troparion — Tone 7
You were Transfigured on the Mount, O Christ God, / revealing Your glory to Your disciples as far as they could bear it. / Let Your everlasting Light shine upon us sinners! / Through the prayers of the Theotokos, O Giver of Light, glory to You!
Kontakion — Tone 7
On the Mountain You were Transfigured, O Christ God, / and Your disciples beheld Your glory as far as they could see it; / so that when they would behold You crucified, / they would understand that Your suffering was voluntary, / and would proclaim to the world, / that You are truly the Radiance of the Father!
Martyr and Archdeacon Euplus of Catania
Troparion — Tone 4
As a holy deacon and righteous minister of the Church of Christ, / you contended superbly. / You sailed over the sea of many torments and afflictions, / O all-blessed Euplus. / Guide us into the haven of heaven.

When the love of Christ was your only defense, / you stood in the midst of your fight and said: / I endure this struggle willingly and with confidence! / You rejoiced, O Euplus, to offer your head to the sword and so complete your course!
Martyrs Basil and Theodore of the Kiev Caves
Troparion — Tone 4

Troparion — Tone 4
(Podoben: “Joseph was amazed...”)
Your lamb Susanna, / calls out to You, O Jesus, in a loud voice: / “I love You, my Bridegroom, / and in seeking You, I endure suffering. / In baptism I was crucified so that I might reign in You, / and I died so that I might live with You. / Accept me as a pure sacrifice, / for I have offered myself in love.” / Through her prayers save our souls, since You are merciful.

Troparion — Tone 3
(Podoben: “You have shone forth with works of godliness...”)
Being exalted in the ways of humility, / you have illumined the entire Church; / for having been glorified on Athos with ascetic seeds, / you received the name “Adornment of Patriarchs.” / O glorious Nḗphon, fill with divine graces those who magnify you with faith and longing.
Saint Passarion
Troparion — Tone 4
The truth of things revealed you to your flock as a rule of faith, / an icon of meekness, and a teacher of abstinence; / therefore, you acquired greatness by humility, and riches by poverty. / O Father and Hierarch Passarion, / intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.

O Hierarch Passarion, divine thunder, spiritual trumpet, / planter of faith and pruner of heresies, / great favorite of the Trinity, while standing with the Angels before God, / pray unceasingly for us all.
