可敬的克塞诺芬、玛利亚和他们的儿子－约安和阿尔卡迪
他们是君士坦丁堡显赫且富有的人家。克塞诺芬同他妻子玛利亚的生活蒙主悦纳，并将所有的精力都用在教导孩子上，以使他们成为好的基督徒。当他们的孩子成年之后，他们打算将两个儿子送到贝鲁特学习。但是在行程中，暴风雨将船打翻，出于上帝的眷顾，约安和阿尔卡迪都得救了。他们被海水冲到了岸边，但是被冲到了两个不同的地方。因此，他们都认为对方已经溺水而死。他们出于对兄弟死亡的悲伤，两人都成了修士，进入了修道院。2年之后，悲伤的父母到耶路撒冷朝圣，在一位神父洞知的帮助下，先是两位兄弟重逢，而后父母也同孩子们团聚。出于对上帝的感谢，克塞诺芬和玛利亚将他们的全部财产都分给了穷人，两人双双进入修道院。这一家四口的故事是感人的，同时也表明了上帝引导那些信靠他的人的命运是多么地奇妙：上帝让人经受痛苦，使他们的信仰后来更加坚定，以便带领他们进入更大的欢乐。这一家人生活和离世的时间是公元5世纪。
Saint Mary and Saint Xenophon were married and the parents of Saint John and Saint Arcadius. Theirs was a wealthy family of Senatorial rank in 5th century imperial Constantinople, but were known as a Christians who lived simple lives. To give their sons a good education, Xenophon and Mary sent them to university in Beirut, Phoenicia. However, their ship wrecked, there was no communication from them, and the couple assumed, naturally, that the young men had died at sea. In reality, John and Arcadius had survived and decided that instead of continuing to Beirut, they were going to follow a calling to religious life and became monks, eventually living in a monastery in Jerusalem. Years later, Mary and Xenophon made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem - where they encountered their sons. Grateful to have their family re-united, and taking it as a sign, Xenophon and Mary gave up their positions in society in Constantinople, and lived the rest of their lives as a monk and anchoress. in Jerusalem. A few years later, the entire family was martyred together.

• Translation (845) of the relics of Hosiosconfessor THEODORE 德奥多若 abbot of the Studion (826) // NOV 11 // JAN 26 TR REL //
Ἀνακομιδὴ Τιμίων Λειψάνων Ὁσίου Θεοδώρου τοῦ Στουδίτου
The Transfer of the Relics of Saint Theodore, Igumen of the Studion Monastery, from Akritian Cherson to Constantinople occurred in the year 845. Saint Theodore was exiled in 815 for refusing to acquiesce in a revival of Iconoclasm during the reign of Emperor Leo V (813-820). He was freed and recalled to Constantinople in 821 after Michael II (820-829) became emperor, but he was unable to reach an accommodation with the new ruler to call a synod against Iconoclasm. Instead, it seems he voluntarily went again into exile in 823, first to the Monastery of Saint Tryphon near Cape Akritas southeast of the city, and later to Prinkipo in the Princes' Islands. He died there November 11, 826. It seems that when the last iconoclast Emperor Theophilos (829-842) died, and following the Triumph of Orthodoxy (843), Naukratios, the successor of Theodore, was able to return to Stoudios Monastery. Shortly thereafter, the relics of Theodore and his brother Joseph of Thessaloniki were translated from Prinkipo to Stoudios on January 26, 844, and laid to rest in the same tomb as his uncle and spiritual father, Saint Plato. This was done after Naukratios of Stoudios and Athanasios of Sakkudion received permission from the Ecumenical Patriarch Methodios and Empress Theodora. Upon the arrival of the relics of the Saints to Constantinople, a multitude of monks, clerics and laymen cheered for joy. And after they were carried to Stoudios Monastery, Patriarch Methodios and other dignitaries visited, though the empress was not able to come but did send gifts. The Patriarch himself interred the relics in their tomb. Saint Theodore's body was preserved whole and incorrupt to such a point, that even his skin was observed to not have changed in the eighteen years since his death.

Μνήμη Μεγάλου Σεισμοῦ
During the final years of the reign of Emperor Theodosius II (408-450), on a Sunday, at the second hour, there occurred such a great earthquake in Constantinople, that it destroyed the city walls, together with many homes and neighborhoods of the city. Extensive damage was especially suffered from the port of Troas to the copper Tetrapylon. Aftershocks rumbled throughout the city for three months. The emperor than called for a procession to be formed with all the people participating. Theodosius then prayed to God with tears in his eyes, saying: Redeem us, O Lord, and grant forgiveness of our sins. In You righteous judgment and indignation these punishments have justly come upon us, since our sins have shaken and sundered the earth. But do forgive us that we may glorify You, our only good God and the lover of mankind.
Κύριε, μετανοοῦμε, λύτρωσέ μας ἀπὸ τὴ δίκαιη ὀργή Σου καὶ ἀπὸ τὰ παραπτώματά μας. Ἔσεισες πράγματι τὴ γῆ καὶ τὴν συντάραξες ἐξαιτίας τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν μας, μὲ σκοπὸ νὰ μᾶς κάνεις νὰ συναισθανθοῦμε τὰ παραπτώματά μας καὶ νὰ δοξάζουμε Ἐσένα τὸν μόνο ἀγαθὸ καὶ φιλάνθρωπο Θεό μας.
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.
