Feast of St. John of Shanghai & San Francisco

Today is the Feast of St. John Maximovitch and also my name day.

TROPARION, TONE 6
"Glorious apostle to an age of coldness and unbelief, invested with the grace-filled power of the saints of old, divinely-illumined seer of heavenly mysteries, , feeder of orphans, hope of the hopeless, thou didst enkindle on earth the fire of love for Christ upon the dark eve of the day of judgment; pray now that this sacred flame may also rise from our hearts."
