• The Most Holy Theotokos in commemoration of "NON-SLUMBERING EYE" ("Unsleeping Eye") (1537) and honored lists of Rybinsk (1539) and of Uglich (1848) Icons
The Icon of the Mother of God "Non-Slumbering Eye" ("Nedremliuschee Oko") was presented as a gift offering by the daughter of a formerly reknown preacher Rodion Putyatin, and situated in a monastery chapel in the city of Rybinsk. The wonderworking image was famed for numerous healings. The title "Non-Slumbering Eye" bestown upon the icon is in connection with the inscription beneathe the image: "I may sleep, but My heart is awake" (Song of Solomon 5: 2). Another ancient wonderworking image of the Mother of God "Non-Slumbering Eye" is known of, situated in the city of Uglich in the Theophany monastery. This icon was presented to the monastery in 1848 by the Uglich resident A. V. Lebedeva. Through the prayers of the Mother of God the wonderworking image was glorified by numerous and graced healings.
• "IMPERIAL" ("Tsesarskaya-Borovskaya") Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos
The Icon of the Mother of God "Imperial" ("Tsesarkaya") Borovsk is known of from the 12th century. At first the wonderworking image appeared in the locality of Usvyat, Vitebsk district. The icon was found nearby a cemetery church, located in the vicinity of Bor, from whence it received the name Borovsk. The Imperial-Tsesarsk is called such because it was a copy from the ancient wonderworking Imperial Icon, glorified in the year 792 (Comm. 9 April). From the cemetery church the icon was transferred to the Saviour-Transfiguration church at Usvyat. About the miraculous signs and healings from the image of the Mother of God, numerous accounts are preserved. In 1859 at Usvyat and its surroundings there raged a cholera epidemic, taking away many lives. With deep faith the inhabitants turned for help to the image of the Heavenly Queen, and the sickness ceased. In that same year of 1859 the MostHoly Synod established the celebration of the Tsesarsk-Borovsk Icon of the Mother of God under 29 May.
• Pskov-Pechersk Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos "SURETY OF SINNERS" 罪人之保障 and Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos "SURETY OF SINNERS" in Moscow (1848)
Σύναξις Ὑπεραγίας Θεοτόκου «ἡ Ἐγγύηση τῶν Ἁμαρτωλῶν»
The Icon of the Mother of God – "Pledge for Sinners" ("Sporuchnitsa Greshnykh") – is called thus because of the inscription preserved on the icon: "I am a Pledge in trust for sinners to My Son...". This image was first glorified by miracles at the Nikolaevsk Odrina [Bed Chamber] men's monastery of the former Orlovsk governance in the mid19th century. The ancient icon of the Mother of God "Pledge for Sinners" because of its old condition was not afforded the proper reverence and stood in an old chaplet at the monastery gates. But in 1843 it was revealed in vision-dreams to many of the people, that through the Prescience of God, the icon was embued with miraculous power. They solemnly conveyed the icon into the church. Believers began to throng to it in prayer for the healing of their sorrows and sicknesses. The first to receive healing was a crippled lad, the mother of whom prayed fervently before the icon. The icon was glorified in particular during the time of a cholera epidemic, when many fell deathly ill, and making their way to it, were by it restored to health. At the monastery in honour of the wonderworking image was built a large church with three altars. On the Icon "Pledge for Sinners", the Mother of God is depicted with the Christ-Child on Her left arm, Who with both His hands holds onto Her right hand. The heads of the Mother of God and the Christ-Child are set in crowns. In 1848, through the zeal of the Muscovite Dimitrii Boncheskul, a copy was made of the wonderworking image and placed in his home. Soon it was glorified as a source of curative myrh, given to many for restoration of health from grievous illnesses. They carried this wonderworking copy into a church of Saint Nicholas at Chamovnika, where then was built a chapel in honour of the Icon of the Mother of God "Pledge for Sinners". Besides 7 March, celebration of this icon is also made on 29 May.
The council was called by the Emperor Constantine the Great and held in Nicea in 325. The teaching of the Alexandrian priest Arius — that Christ is not co-eternal with the Father, but is His divine creation — was attracting many followers throughout the empire, and the Emperor wished for a statement of correct doctrine from the Church. Present at the council were 318 HOLY HIERARCHS, including St NICHOLAS of Myra, St ATHANASIUS the great, and St SPYRIDON. The council clearly condemned the Arian heresy, formulated the first version of the Symbol of Faith (often called the Nicene Creed), and propounded twenty canons. Many distinguished saints were present at the First Ecumenical Council among whom the most notable were: St NICHOLAS of Myra in Lycia, St SPYRIDON, St ATHANASIUS, St ACILLUS, St PAPHNUTIUS, St JAMES of Nisibis, MACARIUS of Jerusalem, ALEXANDER of Alexandria, EUSTATHIUS of Antioch, EUSEBIUS of Caesarea, METROPHANES of Constantinople, JOHN of Persia, ARISTARCHUS of Armenia and many others from the East. From the West, the following were present: HOSIUS of Cordova, THEOPHILUS the Goth, CECILIANUS of Carthage and others.
纪念第一次普世大公会议的日子或是在五旬节前的安息日,或是在复活节后的第七个星期日。第一次普世大公会议于公元325年在尼西亚举行,当时正是君士坦丁大帝在位期间。这次会议的目的是为了消除阿里乌斯异端造成的混淆;阿里乌斯是亚力山大的一名司祭,他对信仰进行了错误的解释。阿里乌斯散布的异端邪说指出:基督是上帝的受造物,基督不是先有的永恒上帝之子,不能同上帝天父相提并论。共有380名圣父参加了这次会议。在这次会议上对阿里乌斯异端进行了谴责,由于阿里乌斯拒绝进行忏悔,于是被逐出了教会。在这次会议上还确定了《信经》的内容,并在公元381年的第二次普世大公会议上进一步确认。许多德高望重的圣父参加了第一次普世大公会议,其中包括:里西亚的米拉的尼科拉、圣斯皮里顿、圣阿塔纳西、圣阿西鲁斯、圣弗努蒂乌斯、尼斯比斯的圣雅各、耶路撒冷的圣玛喀里、亚力山大的圣亚历山大、安提约希亚的圣艾弗斯塔提、恺撒里亚的圣艾弗塞维、君士坦丁堡的圣枚特罗凡内斯、波斯的约安、亚美尼亚的亚里达古以及许多其他来自东方国家的圣父。来自西方国家的圣父包括:科尔多瓦的霍西乌斯、哥特的德奥斐洛、迦太基的切西里亚努斯等等。这次会议所作的最重要的一件事就是确立了《信经》。同时,在这次会议上也确立了纪念复活节的日期,并颁布了20种教规。

Conon the Elder retired into seclusion after the death of his wife and offered his son to the service of the Church. At age 12, the younger was already a lector and later he was ordained a deacon. Soon after Aurelian had issued an edict against the Christians, his officer Domitian went to Iconium in Asia Minor. Both Conons were among the first brought before the judge to answer charges of impiety. The officer, moved with compassion for the venerable old man, asked him why he had chosen so severe and mortified a life. To which the saint replied: "Those who live according to the spirit of the world are fond of pleasures and ease; but those who live according to the Spirit of God, study to purchase the kingdom of heaven by pain and tribulation. As for me, my desire is to forfeit my life here, that I may forever reign with Jesus Christ." The son and his father were roasted near a slow fire and then racked to death. Their relics were later translated to a church dedicated to their memory at Acerra, near Naples.

• Martyr CYRIL of Caesarea in Cappadocia, by beheading (251)
Ὁ Ἅγιος Κύριλλος ἐκ Καισαρείας
Cyril, a boy of Caesarea, Cappadocia, embraced Christianity without the knowledge of his parents. When his father discovered his treason, he threw him out of the house. When the governor caught wind of Cyril's new-found faith, he had Cyril arrested and brought before him. In an attempt to resolve the difference amicably, the governor cajoled the youngster, promising reconciliation with his father and restoration of his inheritance. The child, moved by the Holy Spirit, replied, "I rejoice in suffering reproaches for what I have done. God will receive me, with whom I shall be better than with my father. I cheerfully renounce earthly estates and house, that I may be made rich in heaven. I'm not afraid of death, because it will procure me a better life." At this Cyril was bound and led to the place of execution. The governor was reluctant to kill one so young; therefore, he privately ordered that Cyril be frightened into apostatizing. They stood Cyril before a huge fire and threatened to throw him into it. Again the judge tried to sway Cyril, who answered: "You have done me a real prejudice in calling me back. I neither fear the fire nor the sword; God will receive me. Put me to death without delay, that I may the sooner go to him." All wept to hear him speak this way because they understood how it must end. After again expressing his hope in heaven, Cyril was killed by the sword. His acta are authentic, probably compiled by Bishop Saint Firmilian of Caesarea, and his cultus was old enough to have been included in the Martyrology of Saint Jerome and that by Florus.

St Dyfrig (Dubricius) was a Bishop of the old Romano-British type in the region of Hereford and Gwent. He may have had a link with the St Germanus of Auxerre (or his disciples). He may have first established a base in an old Roman site at Ariconium (Archenfield) in Herefordshire. He founded several monasteries and may have travelled as far south as Somerset. He was an influential teacher; his disciples were St Illtud (llltyd) and St Cadoc in the south and St Deiniol in the north. He made St Samson Abbot of Caldey Island in the Severn Estuary and himself spent time there. An Ogham stone there has inscribed on it ‘Magl Dubr’, ‘the tonsured servant of Dubricius’. He attended the Welsh Synod of Llandewi Breffi in 545. St Dyfrig retired to Bardsey Island off the Lleyn Peninsula and died there. St Dyfrig was of exceptional importance for the early church in Wales as a unifying force and of continuity of tradition. His tomb is in Llandaff Cathedral.

于人们的罪恶,上帝将痛苦的灾难降到了基督徒的首都-君士坦丁堡。1453年5月29日,默罕默德二世征服了君士坦丁堡,并将君士坦丁11世处死。
On this date in 1453, Constantinople, the capital city of the Christian world, was sacked by the forces of Sultan Mehmet (Mohammed) II, bringing it under Turkish rule, where it remains to this day. Constantine XII, the last Byzantine Emperor, died defending the city. Sources are sharply divided as to whether he is to be counted as a Christian Martyr. The designation "Blessed Constantine", above, is from the St Herman Calendar, whose compilers cite Russian martyrologies which list him as a saint. However, the Prologue cites the fall of Constantinople while pointedly omitting any praise of Constantine. He accepted (and never publicly renounced) the false "union" of Florence, and so is counted by some as a heretic. Many Orthodox Christians, including many of the people of Constantinople, saw the city's fall as divine retribution for the Empire's acceptance of the union. Before his death the Emperor donned soldier's armor and helped to man the ramparts of the City; his body was never found. Though various legends abound, the most likely explanation is that he died with many other defenders and was cast with them into a common grave.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.
愿上帝怜恤我罪人
O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God,
for the sake of the prayers
of Thy most pure Mother,
our holy and God-bearing fathers and all the saints, have mercy on us.
Amen.
