Saint
Elizabeth the Grand Duchess
November 5th
Troparion (Tone 4)
You rejected worldly vanity and glories,
having chosen the way of the ascetics, and you were guided by
Mary and Martha, the sisters of Lazarus, how to unite the
teachings of Christ with good deeds. Together with Barbara, your
fellow-struggler, you also received a martyr's death. Wherefore,
Christ crowned you with a two-fold crown, O humble and wise
Abbess Elizabeth.
