Today we celebrate the Feast of St. Matthias, the apostle chosen to take the place of Judas Iscariot. This is a remarkable moment in the life of the early Church. The apostles understood the symbolic and theological importance of restoring the number twelve — representing the fullness of God's people, just as there were twelve tribes of Israel. So they sought the Lord's guidance to choose one who would carry on the apostolic ministry. In his providence, God chose Matthias.

🙏 Reflect and pray with us throughout the Easter season.
