5TH SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST: FATHERS OF THE FIRST SIX ECUMENICAL COUNCILS

Troparion (Tone 8):
You are most glorious, O Christ our God, / You have established the Fathers as lights upon the earth, / and through them, You have guided all of us to the true Faith! / O greatly compassionate one, glory to You.

Kontakion (Tone 8):
The preaching of the Apostles and the dog­mas of the Fathers have confirmed one faith for the Church; / and She, clad in the garment of truth woven from heavenly theology, / teaches aright and glorifies the great mystery of piety.

Epistle: Romans 10:1-10; Hebrews 13:7-16
Gospel: Matthew 8:28-9:1; John 17:1-13
