Commemorated on February 5The third day of the Afterfeast of the Meeting of the Lord falls on February 5.
Troparion - Tone 1Rejoice, O Virgin Theotokos, full of grace!From you shone the Sun of Righteousness, Christ our God.Enlightening those who sat in darkness!Rejoice, and be glad, O righteous elder;You accepted in your arms the Redeemer of our souls,Who grants us the Resurrection.
Kontakion - Tone 1By Your nativity, You did sanctify the Virgin's womb,And did bless Simeon's hands, O Christ God.Now You have come and saved us through love.Grant peace to all Orthodox Christians, O only Lover of man!
