Saint Passarion

Commemorated on August 11

Saint Passarion pursued asceticism in the first half of the fifth century. He founded a monastery in Jerusalem. He was “chorepiskopos” [vicar-bishop] of Palestine, and a converser with Saint Euthymius the Great (January 20).

Troparion — Tone 4

The truth of things revealed you to your flock as a rule of faith, / an icon of meekness, and a teacher of abstinence; / therefore, you acquired greatness by humility, and riches by poverty. / O Father and Hierarch Passarion, / intercede with Christ God that our souls may be saved.

Kontakion — Tone 2

(Podoben: “You sought the heights...”)
O Hierarch Passarion, divine thunder, spiritual trumpet, / planter of faith and pruner of heresies, / great favorite of the Trinity, while standing with the Angels before God, / pray unceasingly for us all.
