The day of God’s good pleasure hath dawned, and the feast of gladness. Let us therefore make haste to Mount Pochaev, O ye faithful, and let us hymn the most blessed Job, celebrating his honored memory.
Commemoration Of The Holy Martyr Parasceva
Thou gavest neither sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids, O venerable one, pleasing the Lord with vigils of prayer and a life of asceticism. Wherefore, with joy we celebrate thy memory, O most honored one.
October 28: Holy Martyrs Terence & Neonilla
Come, ye faithful, to holy Mount Pochaev, where the favored one of God struggled during his lifetime, and ascended from glory to glory; and let us now pray unto him that, having made his abode in the mansions of heaven, he pray to the Lord for the salvation of our souls.
The 28th Day Of The Month Of October
A city set upon the brow of a hill cannot be hid; and though thou restest in thine incorrupt body in a dark cave of stone, O venerable one, yet dost thou summon all to Mount Pochaev for thy splendid festival, entreating Christ God that our souls be saved.
Commemoration Of The Holy Martyrs
O most holy Theotokos, forsake me not during the time of my life, and entrust me not to the intercession of man; but do thou thyself help and have mercy on me.
