September 21, 2021: Feast of St. Matthew

Jesus caused great transformation in the world because He called not the righteous, but sinners.

St. Matthew lived a disreputable lifestyle, but when Jesus called him, he followed a new way, and embraced fellowship with Christ, inviting Him to dine in his home.  St. Mathew would be part of the apostolic foundation of the Church and a herald of the Gospel, demonstrating that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah.

May we open our hearts to God's transformative power in our lives, so we may be a living testimony of His salvation as we live out the way to which He calls us.
