As an unshaken pillar of Christ's Church and an unwavering light of the world,/ thou didst illumine the world by thy martyrdom, O Charalampos,/ and dispel the moonless night of idols./ Since thou hast boldness with Christ,/ pray to Him to save our souls.
Kontakion of St. Charalampos Tone 4
O trophy-bearing Athlete and Hieromartyr Charalampos,/ the Church has acquired thy relics as precious treasure./ Therefore she rejoices and glorifies the Creator.
