Saint Raphael of Brooklin

Troparion — Tone 3

Rejoice O Father Raphael,

Adornment of the Holy Church!
Thou art a champion of the true faith. Seeker of the lost.
Consolation of the oppressed.

Father to orphans,
and friend of the poor.

Peace maker and good shepherd.
Joy of all the Orthodox.

Son of Antioch.

Boast of America.
Intercede with Christ God

for us

and for all who honor thee.

You were a guardian and a defender of the Church’s teaching; / you protected your flock from false doctrines and confirmed them in the true faith. /

O holy father Raphael, son of Syria and glory of North America, / always intercede before the Lord that our souls may be saved.
