Troparion — Tone 4
Having been enlightened by Divine grace, O Venerable one, / and having bound your wise soul to the love of Christ, with uprightness of mind, you scorned temporal, corruptible, and earthly goods. / You armed yourself courageously against noetic enemies with the Sign of the Cross, / extinguishing the coals of the passions by the ascetical struggles of fasting and prayer. / O Anna worthy of glory, / even after death you pour forth grace upon those who come to your relics. / Now, in the heavenly Bridal Chamber with the wise virgins,1 pray to Christ for us who honor your holy memory.
