Prayer to Saint Matthew
O Glorious Saint Mathew, in your Gospel you portray Jesus as the longed-for Messiah who fulfilled the prophets of the Old Covenant and as the Lawgiver who founded a Church of the New Covenant. Obtain for us the grace to see Jesus living in his Church and to follow His teaching in our lives on Earth so that we may live forever with Him in heaven. Amen
