As a servant of the Word, a glorious minister, an all-radiant luminary of the whole world, O divinely blessed one, by thy word thou didst bring an end to the irrational corruption of ungodliness; wherefore, with divine words do we joyfully glorify and celebrate thy holy memory, offering praise to the Almighty.

Glory…, Now & ever…: Troparion from the Pentecostarion.

The divine Apostle Paul, splendidly praising you with divine laudations, setteth your valor before the faithful, speaking first of all to show you forth as most wise disciples of the Word of God and His true kinsmen, O glorious Junia and blessed Andronicus, ye favorites of God.

¶6

Illumining the whole earth with sacred preaching, ye dispelled the gloom of vainglory and have directed to the light of divine knowledge those who from of old were sunk in the darkness of ungodliness, O divine apostles, ye guides to salvation and intercessors for all who ever honor you with faith.

¶7

Glory…, Now & ever…, from the Pentecostarion.

O holy apostles, entreat the merciful God, that He grant to our souls remission of transgressions.
