Troparion
Hearing the words of the Apostle Paul saying:
“We are fools for the sake of Christ,”
1
Thy servants Pelagia, Paraskeva, and Maria, O Christ God,
were fools on earth for Thy sake;
therefore, honoring their memory, we entreat Thee:
“O Lord, save our souls.”
Kontakion
Desiring heavenly beauty, you diligently forsook earthly bodily pleasures,
while living the angelic life in the unacquisitive
2
world,
and after death, Blessed Pelagia, Paraskeva, and Maria
pray unceasingly to Christ God for all of us.

Corinthians 4:10.
