Apolytikion:

Second Tone

We offer Thee in mediation the life-giving Cross which, of Thy goodness, Thou hast given unto us, the unworthy, O Lord. Save Thy hierarchs and Thy flock, and grant Thou peace through the Theotokos, O only friend of man.

In Orthodoxy, today is the Sunday before the Exaltation of the Holy Cross which is celebrated on September 14th. It is a great feastday of The Church. Thanks for the post!
