[ Sunday of All Saints of Rus’-Ukraine ]

SUNDAY OF ALL SAINTS OF RUS’-UKRAINE

(2nd Sunday after Pentecost)

RESURRECTIONAL TROPAR, TONE 1:

When the stone had been sealed by the Jews, and the soldiers were guarding Your Most Pure Body, You arose on the third day, O Saviour, granting life to the world. Therefore, the Powers of Heaven cried out to You, O Giver-of-life: Glory to Your Resurrection, O Christ. Glory to Your Kingdom. Glory to Your Providence, O only Lover-of-Mankind.

TROPAR TO THE SAINTS, TONE 8:

As the beautiful fruit of Your salvific sowing, our land offers to You, Lord, all the saints glorified in it. By their prayers and the prayers of the Theotokos keep our Church and people in profound peace, O Greatly-Merciful One.

KONDAK OF THE RESURRECTION, TONE 1:

As God, You arose from the tomb in glory, raising the world together with Yourself. Human nature praises You as God, for death has vanished. Adam exults, O Master. Eve rejoices, for she is freed from bondage and cries out: You, O Christ, are the One Who gives resurrection to all.

KONDAK TO THE SAINTS, TONE 3:

Today the choir of the saints who pleased God in our land, stands before us in the Church and invisibly prays to God for us. The angels, together with them sing praises, and all the saints of the Church of Christ celebrate with them, for together they all pray to the Eternal God for us.

THEOTOKION, TONE 6:

O Protection of Christians that cannot be put to shame, unchanging mediation unto the Creator, do not despise the suppliant voices of sinners, but be quick to come to our aid, O Good One, who in faith cry out to You: hasten to intercession and come quickly to make supplication, for You, O Theotokos, always protect those who honour You.

PROKEIMEN, TONE 1:

(Psalm 32:22, 1)

Let Your mercy, Lord, be upon us as we have put our hope in You.
Verse: Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous. Praise befits the upright.

PROKEIMEN TO THE SAINTS, TONE 7:

(Psalm 115:5)

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His Saints.

EPISTLE:

Romans 2:10-16

10but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
11For there is no partiality with God.
12For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law
13(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;
14for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves,
15who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them )
16in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

Hebrews 11:32-12:2

32And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the prophets:
33who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
34quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
35Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
36Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment.
37They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented—
38of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens and caves of the earth.
39And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise,
40God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us.

Chapter 12

1Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
2looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

GOSPEL:

Matthew 4:18-23; 4:25-5:12

18And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
19Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
20They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
21Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them,
22and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
23And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.

25Great multitudes followed Him—from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

Chapter 5

1And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him.
2Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:
3“Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.
5Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth.
6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.
7Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.
9Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.
10Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11“Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.
12Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
