St Sebastian
St Sebastian of Rome: my patron and chrismation-day saint.
Icon from OCA [http://www.oca.org/]
Troparion - Tone 1:
O Sebastian, spurning the assemblies of the wicked,
You gathered the wise martyrs
Who with you cast down the enemy;
And standing worthily before the throne of God,
You gladden those who cry to you:
Glory to him who has strengthened you!
Glory to him who has granted you a crown!
Glory to him who through you works healing for all!
Kontakion - Tone 4:
Excelling in godly zeal,
You gathered a band of martyrs from which you shone as a star.
The arrows that wounded your body, O Sebastian,
Pierced the hearts of the enemy.
Therefore Christ has glorified you!
