Oh, great and all-praised apostle and evangelist John the Theologian, confidante of Christ, our warm intercessor and quick helper in troubles! Pray to the Lord God to grant us forgiveness of all our sins, even the sins we have committed since our youth throughout our lives, in our deeds, words, thoughts and all our feelings. At the exodus of our souls, help us, sinners, to get rid of airy ordeals and eternal torment, and through your merciful intercession we glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit now and forever and ever. Amen.
