Holy and glorious Great Martyr of Christ Demetrius, quick helper and warm intercessor of those who flow to you with faith! Standing boldly before the Heavenly King, ask Him for forgiveness of our sins and to save us from the all-destructive plague, cowardice, flood, fire, sword and eternal punishment. Pray for His goodness to protect this city (this abode) and every Christian country. Seek from the Tsar of those reigning for victory and victory over the enemies of the Orthodox Christians, the entire Orthodox power, peace, silence, firmness in faith and advancement in piety; For us, who honor your honorable memory, ask for grace-filled strengthening for good deeds, so that the grace of our Lord Christ God, who works here, may be worthy to inherit through your prayers The Kingdom of Heaven for His eternal glorification with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
