O Lord, save Your people, and bless Your inheritance. Grant victories to the Orthodox and over their adversaries; and preserve your habitation by virtue of Your Cross.

Troparion of St JOSEPH ― Tone 2
Noble Joseph took Thine immaculate Body down from the tree,/ wrapped It in a clean shroud and spices,/ and having embalmed It, laid It in a new sepulcher./ But on the third day Thou didst rise, O Lord,/ granting the world great mercy.
Apolytikion of St JOSEPH ― Tone 2
The noble Joseph, taking down thy most pure Body from the Tree, wrapped it in clean linen and sweet spices and laid it in a new tomb. But on the third day thou didst rise, O Lord, granting the world great mercy.
Apolytikion of St JOSEPH ― Plagal Tone 1
Let us honor the man that gave burial to God and showed compassion to Him by Whose mercy all things exist, Christ the Angel of Great Counsel’s Noble Counselor, who gave his narrow grave to Christ and received as recompense the vast spaciousness of Heaven, where he entreateth the Savior to show His mercy to those praising him.
Troparion of St EUDOCIMUS ― Tone 4
He Who hath summoned thee from earth to the mansions of heaven/ also pre-serveth thy body incorrupt after death, O holy Eudocimus,/ for thou didst live in chastity and a pure life,/ without defiling thy flesh, O blessed one.// Wherefore, entreat Christ God with boldness, that we may be saved.
Troparion of St EUDOCIMUS — Tone 4
He who called you from earth to heaven, / keeps your body unharmed after death, holy Eudocimus; / for you lived a sober and holy life / and did not defile your flesh; / so with boldness intercede with Christ that we may be saved.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Ἅγιος ΕὐΔΌΚΙΜΟΣ — Ἦχος δ´. Ταχύ προκατάλαβε
Ἐκ γῆς ὁ καλέσας σε, πρὸς αἰωνίους μονάς, τηρεῖ καὶ μετὰ θάνατον ἀδιαλώβητον, τὸ σῶμά σου, Ἅγιε, σὺ γὰρ ἐν σωφροσύνῃ, καὶ σεμνῇ πολιτείᾳ, μάκαρ ἐπολιτεύσω, μὴ μολύνας τὴν σάρκα· διὸ ἐν παῤῥησίᾳ Χριστῷ, πρέσβευε σωθῆναι ἡμᾶς.
Apolytikion of St GERMANUS ― Plagal Tone 4
By endurance you gained your reward, venerable Father, you persevered in prayer unceasingly, you loved the poor and provided for them in all things. Blessed Germanus of Auxerre, intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.
Apolytikion of Anonymous New Martyr ― Plagal Tone 1
Let us all honor the Unknown Martyr who was born in Crete and went to Egypt to honorably earn eternal life. He steadfastly resisted the disgraceful plot of the heathen, choosing the noose and martyrdom, rather than a life of shame.

Κοντάκιον. Προεόρτια Προόδου Τιμίου Σταυροῦ ― Ἦχος β’. Τὰ ἄνω ζητῶν
Ὡς θεία λαμπάς, προέρχεται τοῖς πέρασι, Χριστοῦ ὁ Σταυρός, δι’ οὗ ζωὴ δεδώρηται· προσέλθωμεν οὖν ἄνθρωποι, καὶ ῥυφθῶμεν τούτου τῇ χάριτι· ὁ γὰρ ἐν τούτῳ προσπαγείς, παρέχει τοῖς πᾶσιν, ἱλασμὸν καὶ ζωήν.
Kontakion of St JOSEPH ― Tone 2
Joseph of Arimathea took Thee, the Life of all, down from the Tree as one dead,/ and wrapped Thee in clean linen and spices./ He yearned to embrace and kiss Thy pure Body with heart and lips/ yet he restrained himself with fear./ He cried to Thee rejoicing:/ Glory to Thy condescension, O Lover of Mankind.
Kontakion of St EUDOCIMUS ― Tone 2
Desiring Higher things,/ and uniting thyself with those on high,/ thou didst make thy soul a fiery chariot by the divine ascents of the virtues,/ O all-blessed Eudocimus;/ and living on the earth like one of the incorporeal ones,// thou wast well pleasing to the Creator of all.
Kontakion of St EUDOCIMUS — Tone 3
Today your honored memory has assembled us at the holy shrine of your sacred relics; / all then who approach and venerate them / are rescued from the evil malice of demons / and are swiftly delivered from various diseases, blessed Eudocimus.

Ἡ σεπτή σου σήμερον, ἡμᾶς συνοίθρησε μνήμην, ἐν τῇ θείᾳ λάρνακι, τῶν ἱερῶν σου λειψάνων. πάντες οὖν, οἱ προσιόντες καὶ προσκυνοῦντες, ἅπασαν, δαιμόνων βλάβην ἀποσοβοῦνται, καὶ ποικίλων νοσημάτων, λυτροῦνται τάχος, μάκαρ Εὐδόκιμε.
