Translation of the relics of the Hieromartyr Ignatius, the Godbearer and Bishop of Antioch - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 4

Like a treasure of rich and abundant gifts / your relics were carried reverently from Rome to your flock. / While lovingly celebrating their return, / we receive the grace of healing for our souls and bodies: / and we always sing of your martyric contest, O glorious Hieromartyr Ignatius.

Kontakion — Tone 4

(Podoben: “You appeared today…”)
Today you shone forth from the East, / enlightening all of creation with your teachings, / and you were adorned with martyrdom, O godly Ignatius the God-bearer.
