Troparion, tone 4

And a participant in morals,/ and a vicar of the throne, an apostle,/ you gained the deed, inspired by God,/ in a vision the sunrise:/ for this purpose, correcting the word of truth,/ and for the sake of faith You suffered even to the point of blood,/ Hieromartyr Cyprian,/ pray to Christ God// to save our souls.

Kontakion, tone 1

Turning from magical art, O God-wise,/ to the knowledge of the Divine,/ you appeared to the world as the wisest physician,/ granting healing to those who honor you, the Cyprians and Justina:/ praying from the south Lover of humanity // save our souls.

Prayer 1, to the Hieromartyr Cyprian

Holy servant of God, Hieromartyr Cyprian, quick helper and prayer for all those who come running to you! Accept this praise from us, the unworthy; ask the Lord God for strength in weaknesses, consolation in sorrows, and everything useful to everyone in our life; Offer your powerful prayer to the Lord, may he protect us from the falls of sin, may he teach us true repentance, may he deliver us from the captivity of the devil and all the activities of unclean spirits and will tame those who offend us.

Be a strong champion for us against all enemies, visible and invisible; give us patience in temptation and at the hour of our death show us intercession from the torturers at the aerial ordeals; May we, led by you, reach Mount Jerusalem and be honored in the Kingdom of Heaven with all the saints to glorify and sing the holy name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit forever centuries. Amen.

Prayer 2, to the Hieromartyr Cyprian and the Martyr Justina

Oh, holy martyr Cyprian and martyr Justino! Hear our humble prayer. Even though you naturally died your temporary life as a martyr for Christ, but you do not depart from us in spirit, it is always according to the commandments of the Lord to teach us and patiently bear your cross to us helpfully.

This boldness towards Christ God and His Most Pure Mothers was acquired by nature. In the same way, even now, you will be prayer books and intercessors for us unworthy (names).

Be our intercessors of the fortress, so that through your intercession we may remain unharmed from demons, wise men and evil men, glorifying the Holy Trinity, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and forever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.

Brief life

Memorial Day October 2/15

Being a sorcerer, Cyprian cast a spell on St. Justinu, however, seeing the futility of his attempts to break her, converted to Christianity and himself accepted martyrdom for Christ. Through the prayers of St. Cyprian and Justin, many Christians got rid of evil spirits and received protection from witchcraft.
