Holy New Martyr Theokhares at Neopolis in Asia Minor - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 4
(Podoben: “Be quick to anticipate...”)
Your Martyr Theokhárēs, O Lord, / by his contest has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God; / for, possessed of Your strength, / he laid the tyrants low and shattered the powerless boldness of the demons. / By his supplications, save our souls.
Kontakion — Tone 2
(Podoben: “Seeking the things on high...”)
You shone forth in your splendor as a bright star, / proclaiming Christ to this temporal world, O Martyr
Theokhárēs, / vanquishing the snares of false gods, / you revealed the true light to the faithful, / and you
always intercede on behalf of us all.
