Cosmas and Damian the Holy Unmercenaries

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you Pray without ceasing For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured unto you And we know and have believed the love which God hath in us. God is love; and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him Through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God

	Cosmas and Damian the Holy Unmercenaries

These Saints, who are different from those that are celebrated on the 1st of November, were from Rome. They were physicians, freely bestowing healing upon beasts and men, asking nothing from the healed other than that they confess and believe in Christ. They ended their life in martyrdom in the year 284, under the Emperors Carinus and Numerian.

Apolytikion in the Plagal of the Fourth Tone:
Sainted Unmercenaries and Wonder Workers, regard our infirmities; freely you have received, freely share with us.

Kontakion in the Second Tone:
Having received the grace of healing, ye extend health to those in need, O glorious and wonderworking physicians. Hence, by your visitation, cast down the audacity of our enemies, and by your miracles, heal the world.
