Troparion — Tone 5
(Podoben: “Come, let us worship the Word...”)
Shining forth with purity, you rightly divided the inspired Word of truth / as a Hierarch and a minister of God the Word. / By your virtuous struggle you revealed and confirmed the grace granted to you, O James, / instructing all to venerate the Icon of the Savior, / with Whom you intercede for us all.
Kontakion — Tone 8
You excelled in the gifts of the priesthood, O Confessor, / and through your labors You became illustrious in confessing the Faith. / Since you are a fruitful branch of Christ the True Vine, / grant the new wine of forgiveness and salvation to those who cry to you: “Rejoice, O Father James!”
Saint Cyril, Bishop of Catania

In truth you were revealed to your flock as a rule of faith, / an image of humility and a teacher of abstinence; / your humility exalted you; / your poverty enriched you. / Hierarch Father Cyril, / entreat Christ our God / that our souls may be saved.
