Oh, great Martyr John of Christ, champion of the Orthodox, champion of the persecutor of enemies and intercessor of the offended! Hear us, in troubles and sorrows we pray to you, for grace has been given to you from God to console the sad, to help the weak, to save the innocent from vain death and for Pray for all those who suffer evil.
May our champion be strong against all our visible and invisible enemies, so that with your help and fight for us all those who show us evil will be put to shame.
Pray to our Lord, that He will grant us, His sinful and unworthy servants (names), to receive from Him the ineffable good that is prepared for those who love Him, in the Trinity of Saints glorify God, always, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen!
