Having assembled today, let us celebrate the solemnity of the wondrous hierarch John, who raised up for thee a temple, O Mistress, in that thou art the joy of all who sorrow, the help and healing of the infirm; and we fall down before thee, having him as our surety: Help us who languish amid our weaknesses and are heavy laden with many sins, that by thy supplications we may quickly find mercy with thy Son and our God. (Theotokion of the Sessional Hymns at Matins) [Commisioned and Gifted Icons ; Skufi of the saint, at St. Basil]
