Venerable Cornelius of Paleostrov, Olonets - Troparion & Kontakion
Troparion — Tone 5
From your youth, O most wise one, you contested diligently; / instructed by God, you left your homeland, the city of Pskov, / and settled in the wilderness on an island in the great Lake Onega; / wisely gathering monks, you established a monastery with the blessing of the Holy Spirit, / and built a temple dedicated to the Most Holy Theotokos in honor of her Nativity. / By the streams of your tears you drowned the bodiless enemies, / and by the purity of your life, you were united with the assembly of the Angels, O / Venerable Father Cornelius, / with them, entreat Christ God for the salvation of our souls.
Kontakion — Tone 3
You were like an Angel in the flesh on earth, / having been prepared by repentance, O Venerable Father Cornelius, / you were the instructor of many monks; / therefore we cry out to you, / “Entreat Christ God for the salvation of our souls.”
