Martyrs Chrysanthus and Daria, and those with them at Rome
Troparion — Tone 1
Let us honor the like-minded pair of Martyrs, / Chrysanthos the offspring of purity, and the most modest Daria. / For united in holiness in the faith, / they were shown to be initiates of the Word of God. / They contested lawfully for Him; and they save those who sing: / “Glory to Him Who strengthened you. / Glory to Him Who crowned you. / Glory to Him Who, through you, works healings for all.”
Kontakion — Tone 1
You breathed forth the sweet fragrance of piety, O Chrysanthos, / thereby drawing Daria to the knowledge of salvation, and you contested with her. / Putting the serpent to flight, the author of evil, / you were fittingly taken up to the heavenly Bridal Chamber.
Saint Innocent of Komél and Vologda disciple of Saint Nilus of Sora
Troparion — Tone 4
From youth, you were a chosen vessel,1 and served God all your life, / O Innocent, instructor of monks. / You urged them to confront the worse with the better, / and thereby deadened the passions. / You ascended to the vision of uncreated beauty in God, / before Whom you now stand. / Venerable Father, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
1 Acts 9:15.
Kontakion — Tone 8
Withdrawing from the world and from your relatives into the wilderness, / you pleased God by unceasing prayer, and were radiant in life’s spiritual struggle. / Father, remember us who fervently revere your memory, that we may cry to you: / “Rejoice, Venerable Innocent.”
Martyr Pancharius at Nicomedia
Troparion — Tone 3
Your holy martyr Pancharius, O Lord, / through his suffering 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 Pancharius; / extinguishing the allure of false gods, / you enlighten the faithful, / always interceding for us all.
“Sweet-Kissing” Icon of the Mother of God of Smolensk
Troparion — Tone 4
Let all of us, who are burdened with sins, fall on our knees before the Theotokos, / bowing before her wonderworking Icon of Tenderness, / kissing it and crying aloud with tears: / “O Sovereign Lady, accept the prayer of your unworthy servants, / and grant to us who ask, your great mercy.”
Kontakion — Tone 6
We have no other help, we have no other hope but you, O Lady. / Help us, for in you do we hope, / and of you do we boast, for we are your servants. / Let us not be put to shame.
