RESURRECTIONAL APOLYTIKION (TONE 1)While the stone was sealed by the Jews, and the soldiers were guarding
Thy most pure body, Thou didst arise on the third day, O Savior,granting life to the world. For which cause the heavenly powers
cried aloud unto Thee, O giver of life. Glory to Thy Resurrection,O Christ, glory to Thy kingdom, glory to Thy providence,
O Thou Who alone art the lover of mankind.
APOLYTIKION OF ST. GEORGE (TONE 4)As deliverer of captives and defender of the poor,
healer of the infirm, champion of kings, victorious Great Martyr George intercede
with Christ our God for our souls’ salvation.
ORDINARY KONTAKION (TONE 2)O protection of Christians that cannot be put to shame,
mediation unto the Creator most constant, O despise not the suppliant voices of those who have sinned;
but be thou quick, O good one, to come unto our aid, who in faith cry unto thee: Hasten to intercession,
and speed thou to make supplication, thou who dost ever protect,
O Theotokos, them that honor thee.

PROKEIMENON: Let Thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous.
THE EPISTLEThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Romans. (2:10-16)Brethren, glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and alsothe Greek. For God shows no partiality. All who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law. For it is not the hearers of the Law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the Law who will be justified. When Gentiles who have not the Law do by nature what the Law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the Law. They show that what the Law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.
THE GOSPELThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. (4:18-23)At that time, as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon whois called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fisher-men. And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immedi-ately they left their nets and followed Him. And going 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, and He called them. Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him. And He went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the Kingdom and healing every disease and every infirmity among the people.
