Troparion of St Monon tone 4

Thou hast revealed to us the treasures of solitude, O Father Monon,/

and, fearing nothing, thou didst rebuke the lawless men for their

ungodliness. Wherefore, pray to God for us/ that we may have the courage

to confront evil,/ even though like thee/ we thereby receive the crown

of martyrdom,/ that we may be found worthy of eternal salvation.
