In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
God of mercy, you chose a tax collector, Saint Matthew, to share the dignity of the Apostles.
In doing so, You showed us that with you, all things are possible, and that though we are sinners, we too can answer Your noble call to evangelize the world.
By St Matthew’s example and prayers help us to follow Christ and remain faithful in Your service.
Amen.
Dear Saint Matthew, in your Gospel you portray Jesus as the longed-for Messiah who fulfilled the Prophets of the Old Covenant and as the new Lawgiver who founded the Church of the New Covenant.
Obtain for us the grace to see Jesus living in His Church and to follow His teachings in our lives on earth, so that we may live forever with Him in heaven.
Our Father × 1
Hail Mary × 1
Glory Be × 1
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
