Saint George

St George

 

“your life was worthy of your name, Glorious George:
You have taken the cross of Christ on your shoulders,
You have benefited the ground which became barren by the deception of the devil
And, having removed as thorny bush the worship of idols,
You planted the seedĀ of the true faith.
So, too, you can the cure the faithful of all the earth,
And you show yourself to be the good grower of the Most Holy Trinity.
Intercede, we ask you, for the peace of the world
And for the salvation of our souls.” (Byzantine Liturgy)

Saint George, pray for us.
