Saint
Gildas the Wise
Dismissal
Hymn (Tone 8)
Truly
thou art surnamed 'The Wise', O righteous Gildas, for in thy monastic
solitude thou didst use thy God-given gift of words for His greater
glory. Teach us to despise nothing, that all our talents, however
small, may be employed in God's service, for the salvation of our
souls.
Kontakion
(Tone 5)
As
one learned in the art of writing, O wise Gildas, thou didst not
hide thy talent, but brought it forth to glorify thy Creator. Singing
praise to thee, we pray for grace to follow thee in offering everything
to God for His glory alone.
