St. Amphilochios of Patmos (source)
The Monastic equal to the Angels, and the wondrous one among Priests, the flowering of the Gospel, he who promoted piety, and the teacher of repentance, let us bless Amphilochios, for being aflame with virtues, he was lifted up to the heavens like Elias the Zealot, and left behind as his mantle the treasury of his relics, which work awesome wonders. Therefore, today we gather around with faith and cry out together: O most-venerable Father, do not neglect those who honor you, but intercede with the Triune God that our souls may be saved.
-Doxastikon of the Litia from the Feast of the Uncovering of the Holy Relics of St. Amphilochios of Patmos, commemorated on September 19th

Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
