Synaxarion
On 21 January, we commemorate our venerable father Maximos the Confessor.
They cut off your hand and your tongue as well, O Maximos. But you allowed yourself to be pruned; and the heavenly Father graciously received your spirit when, on the twenty-first, fate closed your eyes.
On the same day, we commemorate the holy martyr Neophytos.
The lance uprooted from the earth a beautiful young plant, Neophytos, and offshoot of the new Tree of Life.
By the prayers of Your Saints, O Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us. Amen.
