Holy Martyrs Terence, Pompey & Companions

No Troparion is given in the Menaion.

Kontakion, Tone II, "The Theotokos, who is ever-vigilant..."

Kontakion - Tone II

Today the honored memorial/ of the martyrs Terence and his companions/ hath arrived, gladdening all things. Wherefore, let us hasten, that we may receive healing;/ for they have received from God the grace of the Holy Spirit,// for healing the infirmities of our souls.

Hieromartyr Gregory V, Troparion of the holy hierarch, in Tone VIII

Troparion - Tone VIII

Blessed art Thou, O Christ our God, Who hast given strength to the godly patriarch, sending down upon him Thy grace from on high, and through him hast restored the race of the Hellenes to their ancestral glory.

Kontakion, in Tone IV, "Thou hast appeared..."

All the true children of Greece, assembling today in the city of Odessa, now splendidly celebrate Gregory the patriarch with divine hymnody.
