Hymns
Troparion (Tone 8)
- As the bountiful harvest of Your sowing of salvation,
- The lands of North America offer to You, O Lord, all the saints who have shone in them.
- By their prayers keep the Church and our land in abiding peace
- Through the Theotokos, O most Merciful One.
Kontakion – (Tone 3)
- Today the choir of Saints who were pleasing to God in the lands of North America
- Now stands before us in the Church and invisibly prays to God for us.
- With them the angels glorify Him,
- And all the saints of the Church of Christ keep festival with them;
- And together they all pray for us to the Pre-Eternal God.
