Prayers
Apolytikion: Adorned with flowing Priestly vesture and with dripping streams of blood you at once went to your Lord Christ, O blessed wise Eleftherios, annihilator of Satan. Wherefore, do not cease to intercede for those who honour your blessed struggles in faith.
Kontakion: O Venerable one, we all praise and entreat you, Eleftherios, Priest-Martyr, comeliness of Priests and exaltation of champions. Deliver from diverse dangers those fervently honouring your memory, interceding unceasingly for us all.
