St. Theophanes the Confessor of Mt. Sigriana

No Troparion is given in the Menaion.

Kontakion, Tone II "Seeking the highest"

Kontakion - Tone II

Receiving divine revelation from on high,/ with diligence thou didst depart from the midst of the tumult of life;/ and, having become a solitary, O venerable one,/ thou didst receive the power to work wonders and the dignity of prophe­cy,// having deprived thyself of wealth and wife.

St. Gregory the Dialogist, Troparion, in Tone IV

Troparion - Tone IV

Receiving divine grace from God on high, and strengthened with the power thereof, O glorious Gregory, thou didst will to walk the path of the Gospel. Wherefore, thou hast re­ceived from Christ the reward of thy labors, O most blessed one. Him do thou entreat, that He save our souls.

Kontakion, in Tone III

Kontakion - Tone III

Thou didst show thyself to be an emulator of Christ, the Chief Shepherd, O father Gregory, guiding the orders of monks to the fold of heaven; and from thence thou didst teach the flock of Christ His commandments. And now thou dost rejoice and dance with them in the mansions of heaven.

St. Symeon the New Theologian, Troparion, in Tone VIII

Troparion - Tone VIII

With the streams of thy tears thou didst irrigate the barren desert, and with sighs from the depths of thy soul thou didst render thy labors fruitful an hundredfold, and becamest a beacon for the whole world, resplendent with miracles. O Symeon our father, entreat Christ God, that our souls be saved.

Kontakion, in Tone IV

Kontakion - Tone IV

The Church of Christ rejoiceth today, cel­ebrating thy memory with splendor. Thou hast adorned it with thy discourses and prayers, hast guided the children of faith to the man­sions of heaven, and hast shone with ineffable light, receiving radiance from Christ God, our Sun, O Symeon, our venerable father.
