Saint Sophronius, Bishop of Irkutsk - Troparion & Kontakion

Troparion — Tone 4

From your youth you loved Christ, O blessed Sophronios, / and you governed monastic communities well; / and being honored with the rank of Hierarch, you kept watch over the flock of Irkutsk. / Thus, after your repose, you received the gift of miracles from God, / and now entreat Christ God to deliver us from misfortunes, and to save our souls.

Kontakion — Tone 4

Let us glorify with love the Hierarch and namesake of sobriety, / O faithful, the special adornment of the Church of Irkutsk, our Father and Hierarch Sophronios, / for he is the guardian of that city and land, and an intercessor for our souls.
