*There are no links to Resurrectional Tone for a Sunday Troparion/Kontakion because these differ from year to year.  Counting begins from Pentecost (Tone 1 at the Second Sunday after Pentecost and they keep repeating 1 through 8) through the Fifth Sunday of Lent.  Refer to your church calendar for the Tone of the Sunday and then go to Sunday Troparia.
