- Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
- Lord, have mercy. (3x) Father, bless.
Priest:
- May He who rose from the dead, Christ our true God, through the prayers of His most pure Mother; of the holy, glorious, and all-laudable apostles; of our father among the saints, John Chrysostom, Archbishop of Constantinople; of Saint (of the church); of Saint (of the day), whom we commemorate today; of the holy and righteous Ancestors of God, Joachim and Anna; and of all the saints: have mercy on us and save us, for He is good and loves mankind.
