Saints celebrated on the 14th of May
SAINT MATTHIAS, APOSTLE
Because he had been a witness to the Lord’s Resurrection, Saint Matthias was chosen by the other Apostles to take the place of Judas. The Acts of the Apostles (1:15-26) tells of how he was numbered among the twelve.
PRAYER:
O God, who assigned Saint Matthias
a place in the college of Apostles,
grant us, through his intercession,
that, rejoicing how Your love has been allotted to us,
we may merit to be numbered among the elect.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,
who lives and reigns with You
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
