St. Ambrose of Milan

The Icon

Feast Day - December 7th

This Icon of St. Ambrose of Milan was written by Iconographer Cheryl Pituch. It was presented to a parishioner of St. Luke the Evangelist Parish.

Troparion in tone 4

In truth you were revealed to your flock as a rule of faith,
an image of humility and a teacher of abstinence;
your humility exalted you;
your poverty enriched you.
Hierarch Father Ambrose,
entreat Christ our God
that our souls may be saved.

Kontakion in tone 3

You shone forth with divine doctrine eclipsing the deception of Arius,
shepherd and initiate of the mysteries, Ambrose.
you worked miracles through the power of the Spirit,
healing various passions;
righteous father, entreat Christ our God to grant us His great mercy.
