 The Life of St. Jonah of Manchuria

Service in honor of St. Jonah

 

Troparion to St. Jonah (Tone 4)

Thou wast a good pastor for the Russian people/
who had departed in exodus to live in a foreign land,/
guiding them in every way,/
but especially with the love of Christ,/
in all providing a model of love unfeigned./
O father Jonah, holy hierarch of Christ,//
entreat Him for the salvation of our souls.

Kontakion to St. Jonah (Tone 3)

Taking care for their daily needs,/
Thou didst not forbid children to come to thee,
O divinely blessed one,/
and didst found a home for them./
And even after thy repose thou didst not forsake them;/
for in a dream thou didst heal a paralyzed boy./
Wherefore we cry out unto thee://
Rejoice, O all-glorious Jonah, thou worker of wonders!
