The prayer was approved at the meeting of the Holy Synod on December 29, 2022 (magazine No. 131)
The blessed and God-bearing chosen one of Christ: the many-bright star, John the Baptist and Forerunner of the Savior; the wonderful and merciful saint, the great wonderworker Nicholas; Holy Great Martyr and quick liberator of captives, Victorious George; great in wives, Anastasia the Pattern Maker and all the saints!
We pray to you, unworthy: strengthen the warriors [warrior] [name], in the captivity of those who exist, deliver them [him] from the bonds of the enemy, free them from every evil situation and direct them to salvation, so that when they return to their homes, they will glorify [their home, glorify] the True God, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and yours merciful intercession forever and ever. Amen.
