The Thirteenth Day of the Month of January

Menologion

Troparion of the Feast Tone 1

When Thou wast baptized in the Jordan, O Lord,/ the worship of the Trinity made its appearance./ For the voice of the Father bore witness to Thee/ when He called Thee His beloved Son./ And the Spirit in the form of a dove/ confirmed the truth of the word./ O Christ our God, Who hast appeared and hast enlightened the world,/ glory to Thee!

Troparion of Ss Hermylos and Stratonicos Tone 3

O holy Martyrs who have faithfully confessed the transcendent Trinity,/ renowned and invincible Hermylos/ and steadfast, godly Stratonicos:/ since you partake of the glory that surpasses understanding,/ pray that we may be granted great mercy.

Troparion of St. Erbin Tone 3

Following in the footsteps of thy Hieromartyr Father Constantine,/ thou didst dedicate thy life to Christ, O Father Erbin./ Pray for us, that we may prefer nothing to Christ/ and devoting our lives only to Him,/ may at the Last Day be found worthy of His great mercy.

Kontakion of the Feast Tone 4

Thou hast appeared today to the world,/ and Thy light, O Lord, has been signed upon us/ who with full knowledge sing to Thee./ Thou hast come, Thou hast appeared,/ O Unapproachable Light.

Kontakion of Ss Hermylos and Stratonicos Tone 1

You drowned the enemy in the depths of your contests/ by your steadfastness, O noble Prize-winners./ You received your end in the streams of the river,/ hence were brought to the waters of incorruption./ You magnified Christ, O divine Hermylos/ and Stratonicos.

Kontakion of St. Erbin Tone 6

O blessed and ever memorable founder of both a church and a monastery,/ we raise our voices to hymn thee, Father Erbin, Pillar of ascetics./ Thou art truly a key to heaven./ Wherefore we pray thee for thy help, that following thy example/ we may be instrumental in reestablishing the Orthodox Faith/ in these hallowed islands.
