Saint of the Day - May 14
 Saint Matthias the Apostle
As he could bear witness to the Resurrection of Jesus, he was chosen to replace Judas Iscariot as an Apostle of Jesus. He preached the Gospel for more than 30 years in Judea, Cappadocia, Egypt and Ethiopia. He is remembered for preaching the need for mortification of the flesh with regard to all its sensual and irregular desires. He died stoned to death at Colchis in 80 AD; some relics in the abatical church of Triers, others in Saint Mary Major in Rome. His name means gift of Yahweh (Mattithiah). He is the patron of alcoholism, carpenters, diocese of Great Falls-Billings, Montana, reformed alcoholics, smallpox, and tailors.
