Commemorated on December 18
Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 1
O Sebastian, spurning the assemblies of the wicked, / you gathered the wise martyrs / who with you cast down the enemy; / and standing worthily before the throne of God, / you gladden those who cry to you: / Glory to him who has strengthened you! / Glory to him who has granted you a crown! / Glory to him who through you works healing for all!
Troparion — Tone 4
Your holy martyrs, O Lord, / through their suffering have received incorruptible crowns from You, our God. / For having Your strength, they laid low their adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through their intercessions save our souls!
Kontakion — Tone 4
Excelling in godly zeal, / you gathered a band of martyrs from which you shone as a star. / The arrows that wounded your body, O Sebastian, / pierced the hearts of the enemy. / Therefore Christ has glorified you!
