Saint Theodore Stratelates the Great Martyr - February 8

Saint Stratelates

Apolytikion
In truth enlisted with the King of the Heavens,
thou didst become for Him a noble commander,
O trophy-bearer and Great Martyr Theodore.
With the weaponry of faith didst thou arm thyself wisely
and didst utterly destroy all the hordes of the demons,
as a triumphant athlete of the Lord;
wherefore we ever do faithfully call thee blest.

Kontakion
In courage of soul, and furnished with the arms of faith,
thou tookest in hand the word of God as though a spear
and didst put thy foe to flight,
thou great boast of martyrs, O Theodore;
now together with them, O Saint,
cease not to entreat Christ our God for all of us.
