Commemorated on December 22

Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 4

Your lamb Anastasia, calls out to You, O Jesus, in a loud voice: / “I love You, my Bridegroom, and in seeking You I endure suffering. / In baptism I was crucified so that I might reign in You, and I died so that I might live with You. / Accept me as a pure sacrifice, / for I have offered myself in love.” / Through her prayers save our souls, since You are merciful.

Troparion — Tone 5

As a martyr you emulated the deeds of the martyrs, / to whom you ministered, / and, striving valiantly, you overcame the enemy. / You are an abundant and overflowing source of grace / for all who come to you, O godly-minded Anastasia!

Kontakion — Tone 2

Those in temptations and afflictions hasten to your temple / and are restored by the grace that dwells in you, / for you ever pour forth healings for all the world, / O great Martyr Anastasia!
