Troparion of ST JOHN THE RUSSIAN ― Tone 1
Russia thy fatherland boasts of thy birth, O John,/ and Asia rejoices in thy relics:/ carried thither as a prisoner and enduring great hardships,/ as an ascetic thou hast become God's initiate./ Glory to Christ Who has glorified thee; glory to Him Who has made thee wondrous;/ glory to Him Who has given thee to us as a protector.
Troparion of ST JOHN THE RUSSIAN ― Tone 4
He Who called thee from earth to heaven/ keeps thy body unharmed even after death, O righteous John./ Thou wast taken to Asia as a prisoner/ and didst win Christ as thy friend./ Beseech Him that our souls may be saved.
Apolytikion of ST JOHN THE RUSSIAN ― Tone 4
He that hath called thee from earth unto the heavenly abodes, doth even after thy death keep thy body unharmed, O righteous one; for thou wast carried off as a prisoner to Asia, wherein also, O John, thou didst win Christ as thy friend. Wherefore, do thou beseech Him that our souls be saved.
Ὅσιος ἸΩΆΝΝΗΣ ὁ ΡῶΣΟΣ ― Ἀπολυτίκιον ― Ἦχος γ’. Θείας πίστεως
Θείας πίστεως, τὸ φῶς κατέχων, πικρὰν ἤνεγκας, αἰχμαλωσίαν, Ἰωάννη καὶ ὁσίως ἐβίωσας· ὅθεν τὸ θεῖόν σου λείψανον Ἅγιε, θαυματουργίας πηγάζει ἐν Πνεύματι· ᾧ προστρέχοντες, ὑμνοῦμεν τὸν σὲ δοξάσαντα, τιμῶντες τὰ σεπτά σου προτερήματα.

Apolytikion of ST HELLADIOS ― Tone 4
As a sharer of the ways and a successor to the throne of the Apostles, O inspired of God, thou foundest discipline to be a means of ascent to divine vision. Wherefore, having rightly divided the word of truth, thou didst also contest for the Faith even unto blood, O Hieromartyr Alladius. Intercede with Christ our God that our souls be saved.
Troparion of ST HELLADIOS ― Tone 5
The hosts of heaven,/ marvelling at thy steadfast courage,/ were astonished by thine endurance, O blessed one./ For though in a mortal body/ thou didst shame the bodiless by the power of the Cross,/ O Hierarch Helladios,/ defender of godliness and invincible soldier of Christ.
Ἅγιος ἙΛΛΆΔΙΟΣ ― Ἀπολυτίκιο ― Ἦχος δ´. Ταχύ προκατάλαβε
Ὡς στύλος ἀκλόνητος, τῆς Ἐκκλησίας Χριστοῦ, καὶ λύχνος ἀείφωτος τῆς οἰκουμένης σοφέ, ἐδείχθης Ἑλλάδιε· ἔλαμψας ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ, διὰ τοῦ μαρτυρίου, ἔλυσας τῶν εἰδώλων, τὴν σκοτόμαιναν μάκαρ, διὸ ἐν παρρησίᾳ Χριστῷ, πρέσβευε σωθῆναι ἡμᾶς.
Ἅγιος ἙΛΛΆΔΙΟΣ ― Ἀπολυτίκιο ― Ἦχος πλ. α’. Τὸν συνάναρχον Λόγον
Φερωνύμως ἐδέξω ὡς θεῖον ἔλαιον, ἱερουργίας τὴν χάριν, τῇ ἐπινεύσει Χριστοῦ, καὶ ἱέρευσας σοφῶς Πάτερ Ἑλλάδιε, καὶ Μαρτύρων κοινωνός, δι’ ἀγώνων ἱερῶν, γενόμενος Ἱεράρχα, καθικετεύεις ἀπαύστως, ἐλεηθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν.

Troparion of ST MELANGELL ― Tone 8
Preferring the rigours of monasticism to worldly status and marriage, 0 pious Melangell,/ though wast fifteen years on a rock, emulating the example of the Syrian Stylites./ Wherefore, 0 Saint, pray to God that He will give us strength to serve Him as He wills,/ that we may be found worthy of His great mercy.
• • •
Troparion of ST THERAPON of Sardis ― Tone 4
By sharing in the ways of the Apostles, you became a successor to their throne. / Through the practice of virtue, / you found the way to divine contemplation, O inspired one of God; / by teaching the word of truth without error, / you defended the Faith, even to the shedding of your blood. / Hieromartyr Therapon, entreat Christ God to save our souls.
• • •
Troparion of ST BEDE ― Tone 8
Throughout the dark years of thy times, O Bede, thou didst water the English lands and all the West with outpourings of grace; and like a skilled sower thou didst cast the seed of divine knowledge far and wide over the fields of thy Master, where, springing forth, it hath borne fruit for Him an hundredfold. Wherefore, having thus acquired boldness before Him, O venerable one, pray thou unceasingly that our souls be saved.

Ἀλλ’ ὡς Μάρτυς καὶ φωστὴρ λαμπρὸς τῆς πίστεως
Καθοδήγησον ἡμᾶς πρὸς γνῶσιν ἔνθεον
Τοὺς βοῶντάς σοι, χαίροις Πάτερ Ἑλλάδιε.

Thou wast like a radiant lamp shining forth from Northumbria, O venerable Bede, shedding the light of divine knowledge upon the realms of the English, and enlightening with thy godly wisdom all the lands of the West.
