Prayers

Troparion: As Orthodox sweetness and Divine nectar, Venerable Father thou dost flow into the hearts of believers as a wealth: by thy life and teachings thou didst reveal thyself to be a living book of the Spirit, most wise Justin; therefore Pray to Christ the Word that the Word may dwell in those who honour thee.

Thy love for truth and desire to live with all the Saints is a reminder to us of our own calling from God to pursue virtue, that we, most unenlightened and miserable sinners, may open our hearts to the knowledge of Truth Incarnate, the Lord Jesus Christ, to Whom belongs Glory, Honour and Worship, together with His Un-originate Father, and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
