Reading from the Synaxarion:
This Saint was from the Thebaid of Egypt and struggled many years in
the wilderness. He departed for Constantinople, and having performed
many miracles and healings, he reposed in peace in a mountain cave on
the Gulf of Corinth, where his holy relics are found incorrupt to the
present day.
Apolytikion in the Plagal of the Fourth Tone
The image of God, was faithfully preserved in you, O Father. For you
took up the Cross and followed Christ. By Your actions you taught us
to look beyond the flesh for it passes, rather to be concerned about
the soul which is immortal. Wherefore, O Holy Patapius, your soul
rejoices with the angels.
Kontakion in the Third Tone
Having found thy Church to be a place of spiritual healing, all the
people flock with haste thereto, O Saint, and they ask thee to bestow
the ready healing of their diseases and forgiveness of the sins they
wrought in their lifetime; O Patapius most righteous, in every need, thou
art the protector of all.
