ST BOLCAN
St MILDRED of Thanet
Troparion of St Leo of Catania Tone 1
Thou wast shown forth as a resplendent priest,/ a teacher of godliness and a wonderworker, blessed Hierarch Leo;/ for by the light of heavenly virtue thou wast enriched with the power of the Spirit,/ and dost heal the souls and bodies of those who hasten to thee./ Glory to Christ Who has glorified thee; glory to Him Who has crowned thee;/ glory to Him Who through thee works healings for all.
Troparion of St Leo of Catania Tone 1
You were shown forth as a resplendent priest, / a teacher of godliness and a wonderworker, blessed hierarch Leo; / by the light of heavenly virtue you were enriched with the power of the Spirit, / and heal the souls and bodies of those who hasten to you. / Glory to Christ who has glorified you! / Glory to Him who has crowned you! / Glory to Him who through you works healing for all!
Troparion of St Leo of Catania Tone 4
The truth of things revealed thee to thy flock as a rule of faith,/ a model of meekness and a teacher of abstinence/ wherefore thou hast attained the heights through humility/ and riches through poverty.// O hierarch Leo our father, entreat Christ God that our souls be saved.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Ἅγιος Λέων Ἦχος α’. Τῆς ἐρήμου πολίτης
Ἱερέων ἀκρότης εὐσέβειας διδάσκαλος, καὶ θαυματουργὸς ἀνεδείχθης, Ἱεράρχα πανόλβιε· ἠθῶν γὰρ οὐρανίων τῷ φωτί, τοῦ Πνεύματος πλουτήσας τὴν ἰσχύν, θεραπεύεις τοὺς νοσοῦντας καὶ τὰς ψυχὰς, Λέον τῶν προσιόντων σοι. Δόξα τῷ σὲ δοξάσαντι Χριστῷ, δόξα τῷ σὲ στεφανώσαντι, δόξα τῷ ἐνεργοῦντι διὰ σοῦ, πᾶσιν ἰάματα.
Ἀπολυτίκιον. Ἅγιος Λέων Ἦχος δ´
Κανόνα πίστεως, καὶ εἰκόνα πραότητος, ἐγκρατείας διδάσκαλον, ἀνέδειξε σε τῇ ποίμνῃ σου, ἡ τῶν πραγμάτων ἀλήθεια· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκτήσω τῇ ταπεινώσει τὰ ὑψηλά, τῇ πτωχείᾳ τὰ πλούσια. Πάτερ Ἱεράρχα Λέων, πρέσβευε Χριστῷ τῷ θεῷ, σωθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.
Troparion of St Bolcan Tone 7
As thou didst encourage the virtue of learning, wise Hierarch Bolcan,/ teach us to have humility to follow our fathers in the Faith,/ and not the ways of our own devising/ that being faithful to Christ,/ we may be found worthy of His great mercy.
Troparion of St Mildred Tone 4
Through constant prayer and frequent fasting, by ceaseless hymnody and great humility, the glorious Mildred forsook the allurements of her royal rank, trampling underfoot all worldly pride and presumption. Wherefore, let us imitate her virtues, that, free from all earthly attachments, we may join her at the wedding feast of Christ our Saviour.

Kontakion of St Leo of Catania Tone 2
With hymns of praise let us crown Leo, / who was consecrated to the Lord from early childhood; / he received grace while still a babe in swaddling clothes. / He is a brightly shining star in the Church: / its valiant defender and firm support!
Kontakion of St Leo of Catania Tone 8
The Church has thee as a light brighter than the sun, blessed Leo:/ she cries to thee: By thy intercessions pleasing to the Lord/ keep the Church unconquered and unshaken by any heresy.
Kontakion of St Leo of Catania Tone 8 "As firstfruits"
The Church hath thee, O most blessed one, as a great beacon shining more brightly than the sun./ By thy supplications preserve it invincible, unshaken and unharmed by any heresy,// in that thou art ever-memorable.
Κοντάκιον. Ἅγιος Λέων Ἦχος β’. Τὴν ἐν πρεσβείαις
Τὸν ἀπὸ βρέφους Κυρίῳ ἀνατεθέντα, καὶ ἐκ σπαργάνων τὴν χάριν ἀνειληφότα, πάντες τοῖς ᾄσμασι στεφανώσωμεν, Λέοντα τὸν φωστῆρα τῆς Ἐκκλησίας καὶ πρόμαχον· αὐτῆς γὰρ ὑπάρχει τὸ στήριγμα.
Kontakion of St Bolcan Tone 8
From thy lips pure streams of Orthodox doctrine poured forth,/ O most noble teacher and gracious Hierarch Bolcan./ Revering thy memory, we pray for grace to follow thee, profiting by thy righteous example.
Kontakion of St Mildred Tone 1
The Isle of Thanet aboundeth with thy grace, O Mildred merciful and mild, for there thou didst tend well the lambs entrusted to thy care, feeding them upon the verdant grass of the virtues, and giving them to drink of the still waters of piety. Wherefore, the radiance of thy holiness shineth forth from Minster, enlightening all England, O venerable mother, and filling our souls with light divine.

Μεγαλυνάριον. Ἅγιος Λέων
Ἔφριξαν ἰδόντες σε ἐν φλογί, ἱστάμενον Πάτερ, ὡς ἐν κήπῳ ἀειθαλεῖ, τὸν δὲ μάγον ὥσπερ, κηρὸν διαλυθέντα, οἱ εὐσεβεῖς ὦ Λέον, Θεὸν δοξάζοντες.
