On this, the tenth day of the month of July, we commemorate the
45 Martyrs of Nicopolis, Armenia
Our Holy Father Gregory, Bishop of Assa
Through the intercessions of the holy 45 Martyrs of Nicopolis, O Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us. Amen.
45 Martyrs of Nicopolis, Armenia
Apolytikion: Fourth Tone
Thy Martyrs, O Lord in their courageous contest for Thee received the prize the crowns of incorruption and life from Thee, our immortal God. For since they possessed Thy strength, they cast down the tyrants and wholly destroyed the demons' strengthless presumption. O Christ God, by their prayers, save our souls, since Thou art merciful.
Kontakion: Plagal of the Fourth Tone (tone 8)
For love of Christ our God, ye endured many torments valiantly, destroying polytheistic idolatry, O Martyrs of Nicopolis; and by Christ's mighty power, ye destroyed all the error of wicked godlessness. Teach us with faith and boldness to cry aloud: Alleluia.
Reading:
The Forty-five Martyrs of Nicopolis contested during the reign of Licinius, in the year 315. After many torments, they were burnt alive.
