St. Matthew
Feast Day: September 21st
Patron of bankers and accountants

St. Matthew, you were first a tax collector and then a gatherer of souls for Christ after immediately following His call. Later you wrote the Gospel accounts of what Jesus, descendant of David, said and did as Teacher and Savior. Dear Saint Matthew, we ask your prayers for the Catholic Community Foundation and the Archdiocese of San Antonio that we might imitate your example by being careful stewards with those who entrust their financial resources to us. Amen.
