Commemorated on January 27

Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 8

Grace shining forth from your lips like a beacon has enlightened the universe; / it has shone to the world the riches of poverty; / it has revealed to us the heights of humility. / Teaching us by your words, O Father John Chrysostom, / intercede before the Word, Christ our God, to save our souls.

Kontakion — Tone 6

Having received divine grace from heaven, / you teach all men to adore the one God in three persons. / O all-blessed John Chrysostom, we rightly praise you, / for you are our teacher, revealing things divine!
