St. Nektarios, newly shining star of Orthodoxy



Troparion - Tone 1

O faithful, let us honor Nectarios the divine servant of Christ,
offspring of Silyvria and guardian of Aegina,
who appeared in these last times as a true friend of virtue,
pouring forth all manner of healing upon those who reverently cry:
Glory to Him who gave you strength!
Glory to Him who granted you a crown!
Glory to Him who through you grants healing to all!


Kontakion - Tone 8

Let us sing praises with gladness of heart
to the newly-shining star of Orthodoxy, the newly-built rampart of the Church.
Being glorified by the power of the Spirit, he pours forth the abundant grace of healings upon those cry:
"Rejoice, Father Nectarios."


His Masterwork, Agni Parthene (Rejoice, O Unwedded Bride)
