Resurrectional Apolytikion Plagal of the Second Tone
O Christ, the angelic powers appeared at Your tomb, the guards were as dead, and Mary stood by the sepulcher, seeking Your sacred body. You destroyed Hades yet remained untouched by it. You encountered the Virgin and through her, bestowed Life. Glory to You who has risen from the dead! - Copyright Narthex Press, used by permission. All rights reserved

Apolytikion for Sunday of St. Gregory Palamas
O Gregory the Miracle Worker, light of Orthodoxy, support and teacher of the Church, comeliness of Monastics, invincible defender of theologians, the pride of Thessalonica, and preacher of grace, intercede forever that our souls may be saved. - Copyright Narthex Press, used by permission. All rights reserved

Apolytikion of the Church
As the deliverer of the captives and protector of the poor, as the physician of the feeble and combatant of kings, champion and great martyr George, intercede with Christ our God to save our souls.
