The Holy and Great Martyr George

Spomen novembar 3

Pious Christians built a new church in honor of St George at Lydda during the reign of St Constantine (305-337). When the church was consecrated, the relics of the holy Great Martyr George (April 23) were transferred there, and many miracles took place before them.

Tropar

O liberator of captives,
defender of the poor,
physician of the sick, and champion of kings,
trophy-bearer, great martyr George,
intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.

Kondak

As we the faithful flee to you for refuge
and seek your protection and speedy help,
we entreat you, O Champion of Christ,
that we who sing your praises may be delivered from the snares of the enemy
and from every peril and adversary,
that we may cry, "Rejoice, O martyr George!"
