Menologion

Troparion of the Feast Tone 1

Rejoice, thou who art full of grace,/ Mother of God and Virgin,/ for from thee arose the Sun of Righteousness, Christ our God,/ to give light to those in darkness./ Rejoice thou also, righteous Elder, who didst take in thine arms the Redeemer of our souls,/ Who also gives us the grace of resurrection.

Troparion of St. Agatha Tone 3

Thou wast a fragrant flower of virginity/ and an undefiled bride of the Lifegiver;/ thou didst desire the Source of all good and excel in martyrdom./ O glorious Agatha,/ intercede by thy holy prayers for those who lovingly honour thy contest. 9x10.5in Russian icon circa 1890 of St Theodosi, Bishop

Troparion of St. Theodosi of Chernigov Tone 4

O holy Hierarch Theodosi,/ thou wast found to be most worthy among bishops/ and a light to thy flock/ when translated to eternal mansions./ Pray at the throne of the King of glory/ that we may be delivered from all present evils,/ that our souls may be saved by thy prayers.

Kontakion of the Feast Tone 1

Thou Who didst sanctify the Virgin's womb by Thy birth/ and bless Symeon's hands as was fitting/ hast now come to us and saved us, O Christ our God./ But grant peace in the midst of wars to Thy community,/ and strengthen the Church which Thou hast loved,/ O only Lover of mankind.

Kontakion of St. Agatha Tone 4

Let the Church be arrayed today in glorious purple/ dyed with the chaste blood of the Martyr Agatha,/ and let us cry: Rejoice, thou boast of Catania.

Kontakion of St. Theodosi Tone 4

O holy Hierarch Theodosi, thou didst labour for Christ/ by grazing thy rational sheep on spiritual pastures;/ thou didst receive the gift of healing from Christ the Saviour/ to cure all who come to thy relics/ from bodily and spiritual infirmities./ Pray for those who call on thy name,/ that our souls may be saved from the enemy.
