Weekly Cycle of Byzantine Worship - Thursday

Thursdays are dedicated to the Holy Apostles and to Our Holy Father Nicholas of Myra (Patron Saint of the Byzantine Catholic Church)

O holy apostles, intercede with the merciful God * that he may grant our souls forgiveness of sins.

[Troparion of the Cross, The Divine Liturgies of Our Holy Fathers John Chrysostom and Basil The Great (People's Book), The Byzantine Catholic Metropolitan Church Sui Juris of Pittsburgh, USA, 2006, pg. 409]

Your life has shown you to your flock as a rule of faith, * an image of gentleness, and a teacher of 
moderation. * You acquired greatness through humility * and wealth through poverty. * O father 
and archbishop Nicholas, * intercede with Christ our God to save our souls.

[Troparion of St. Nicholas, The Divine Liturgies of Our Holy Fathers John Chrysostom and Basil The Great (People's Book), The Byzantine Catholic Metropolitan Church Sui Juris of Pittsburgh, USA, 2006, pg. 409]
