Afterfeast of the Dormition of our Most Holy Lady the Theotokos and Ever Virgin Mary

August 21

Apolytikion in the First Tone

In birth, you preserved your virginity; in death, you did not abandon the world, O Theotokos. As mother of life, you departed to the source of life, delivering our souls from death by your intercessions.
