TRANSLATION OF THE RELICS OF GREAT MARTYR THEODORE
ST KALLIOPI THE MARTYRESS
VENERABLESS MELANIA THE ELDER
Righteous JOHN of Kronstadt
Troparion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 4
With thy true strategy, O Trophy-bearer,/ thou wast an illustrious general of the Heavenly King./ Armed with the weapons of faith,/ thou didst annihilate hordes of demons./ O victorious Athlete Theodore, with faith we call thee blessed.
Troparion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 4
Truly enlisted with the King of Heaven, / you became an outstanding general for Him, passion-bearer Theodore; / you armed yourself wisely with the weapons of faith / and conquered hordes of demons, revealing yourself as a victorious athlete. / Therefore, in faith we always call you blessed.
Troparion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 4
Through true recruitment/ didst thou become a most comely general of the heavenly King,/ O passion-bearer Theodore;/ for with the weaponry of faith thou didst wisely array thyself,/ didst vanquish legions of demons and didst show thyself forth as a victorious athlete.// Wherefore, with faith do we ever bless thee.
Troparion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 4
As Christ the Saviour's mighty athlete and victor, and a provider of the gifts come from Heaven, thou always swiftly helpest with thy prayers to God all those who seek refuge in thy divinely-graced temple and who flee with fervent faith to thy holy protection. Wherefore we cry to thee: Deliver us from every danger, O thrice-blessed Theodore.
Ἁγίου ΘΕΟΔΏΡΟΥ τοῦ Στρατηλάτου ― Ἀπολυτίκιον ― Ἦχος δ΄. Ὁ ὑψωθείς
Στρατολογίᾳ ἀληθεῖ ἀθλοφόρε, τοῦ οὐρανίου στρατηγὸς Βασιλέως, περικαλλὴς γεγένησαι Θεόδωρε· ὅπλοις γὰρ τῆς πίστεως, παρετάξω ἐμφρόνως, καὶ κατεξωλόθρευσας, τῶν δαιμόνων τὰ στίφη, καὶ νικηφόρος ὤφθης ἀθλητής, ὅθεν σε πίστει, ἀεὶ μακαρίζομεν.
Ἁγίου ΘΕΟΔΏΡΟΥ τοῦ Στρατηλάτου ― Ἀπολυτίκιον ― Ἦχος πλ. α’. Τὸν συνάναρχον Λόγον
Δωρεῶν θεοσδότων ὄλβον ἀκένωτον, τὴν τῶν σεπτῶν σου λειψάνων θήκην πλουτοῦντες σοφέ, τὴν μετάθεσιν αὐτῶν πανηγυρίζομεν, ἁγιασμοῦ τὰς δωρεάς, πορισόμενοι πιστῶς, Θεόδωρε Στρατηλάτα· διὸ μὴ παύσῃ πρεσβεύων, ἐλεηθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.

Apolytikion of St KALLIOPI ― Tone 1
Having loved the beauty of the Savior from your soul, O comely-virgin lady, O all-praised Kalliopi, you struggled steadfastly on His behalf, and were made worthy of divine glory. Because of this, we honor your holy memory and cry out to you: Glory to Him Who gave you strength, Glory to Him Who crowned you, Glory to Him Who grants to us, through you, remission of offenses.
Ἁγία ΚΑΛΛΙΌΠΗ ― Ἀπολυτίκιον ― Ἦχος α’. Τῆς ἐρήμου πολίτης
Τοῦ Σωτῆρος τὸ κάλλος ἐκ ψυχῆς ἀγαπήσασα, καλλιπάρθενε κόρη, Καλλιόπη πανεύφημε, ἠγώνισαι στερρῶς ὑπὲρ αὐτοῦ, καὶ δόξης ἠξιώθης θεϊκῆς· διὰ τοῦτό σου τὴν μνήμην τὴν ἱεράν, τιμῶμεν ἐκβοῶντές σοι· δόξα τῷ δεδωκότι σοι ἰσχύν, δόξα τῷ σὲ στεφανώσαντι, δόξα τῷ χορηγοῦντι διὰ σοῦ, ἡμῖν πταισμάτων ἄφεσιν.

Apolytikion of St MELANIA THE ELDER ― Tone 1
Scorning riches that perish and worldly dignity, thou soughtest heavenly glory through self-denial and toils, making noble rank more noble by humility; and thou didst build a holy house in Jerusalem, where thou didst guide souls unto salvation. And now, O Mother Melania, grant us the alms of thy rich prayers to God.

Troparion of St JOHN of Kronstadt ― Tone 1
As a zealous advocate of the Orthodox faith,
As a caring Solicitor for the land of Russia,
Faithful to the rules and image of a pastor,
Preaching repentance and life in Christ,
An awesome servant and administer of God's sacraments,
A daring intercessor for people's sake,
O Good and righteous Father John,
Healer and wonderful miracle-worker,
The praise of the town of Kronstadt
And decoration of our Church,
Beseech the All-Merciful God
To reconcile the world and to save our souls!
Troparion of St JOHN of Kronstadt ― Tone 4
With the apostles your message has gone out to the ends of the world,
And with the confessors you suffered for Christ!
You are like the hierarchs through your preaching of the word;
With the righteous you are radiant with the grace of God.
The Lord has exalted your humility above the heavens
And given us your name as a source of miracles.
O wonder-worker, living in Christ for ever,
Have mercy on those beset by troubles;
And hear us when we cry out in faith, O our beloved shepherd John!

Kontakion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 2 "Seeking the highest..."
Arrayed in faith with manliness of soul,/ and taking in hand the word of God as a spear,/ thou didst conquer the enemy, O Theodore,/ great among the martyrs.// With them cease thou never to entreat Christ God in behalf of us all.
Kontakion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 2 "Seeking the highest..."
With the word of God as a spear in your hand, / in courage of soul and armed with faith, / you vanquished the enemy, O Theodore, glory of martyrs; / with them you unceasingly pray to Christ God for us all.
Kontakion of St THEODORE Stratelates ― Tone 8
Through lying as dead in thy holy reliquary thou art enjoying eternal life./ Thou dost pour forth a fountain of gifts for those who venerate thy relics/ and seek thy help, O Theodore, God the Word's commander.
Ἁγίου ΘΕΟΔΏΡΟΥ τοῦ Στρατηλάτου ― Κοντάκιον ― Ἦχος δ΄. Ὁ ὑψωθείς
Ἀνδρεία ψυχῆς τὴν πίστιν θωρακισάμενος, καὶ ρῆμα Θεοῦ ὡς λόγχην χειρισάμενος, τὸν ἐχθρὸν κατέτρωσας, τῶν Μαρτύρων μέγιστε Θεόδωρε, σὺν αὐτοῖς Χριστῷ τῷ Θεῷ, πρεσβεύων ἀπαύστως ὑπὲρ πάντων ἡμῶν.
Ἁγίου ΘΕΟΔΏΡΟΥ τοῦ Στρατηλάτου ― Κοντάκιον ― Ἦχος πλ. δ’. Εἰ καὶ ἐν τάφῳ
Εἰ καὶ νεκρὸς ἐν τῇ θήκῃ κατάκεισαι, ἀλλὰ ζωὴν ἐκτρυγᾷς τὴν αἰώνιον, καὶ βλυστάνεις διαπαντός, πηγὴν δωρεῶν, τοῖς προσψαύουσι πόθῳ τῶν θείων λειψάνων σου, καὶ τὴν σὴν ἐξαιτοῦσι ταχεῖαν ἀντίληψιν, ὁ Στρατηλάτης τοῦ Λόγου Θεόδωρος.

Παρθενικῇ διαλάμπουσα χάριτι, μαρτυρικῶς τῷ Χριστῷ προσενήνεξαι· οὗ νῦν τῆς χαρᾶς ἀπολαύουσα, τῆς ὑπὲρ νοῦν Καλλιόπη πανεύφημε, δυσώπει ὑπὲρ τῶν τιμώντων σε.
