* St. Kanten of Wales--
* St. Kea of Devon and Cornwall
Thou wast unsparing in thy missionary labours/ in Brittany and Cornwall,
O Hierarch Kea./ As thou didst make the flame of the orthodox Faith burn
brightly in the face of defiant paganism,/ pray to God for us,/ that we
devote our lives to confronting the paganism of our times/ for the glory
of Christ's Kingdom and the salvation of men's souls.
