Saint Matthew
Apostle (
1st C Anno Domini A.D.) Feast: 21 September
Once upon a time there was a tax gatherer named Levi . The Jews did not like him. He took their tax money & gave it to the Romans. But Levi was not a bad man. He only did what he thought was his duty. One day Jesus 
saw him. He saw good in him that others did not see. "Come & follow Me!" Jesus said quietly to the tax gatherer. Levi looked up in surprise

Levi had never seen such a wonderful Man before. Why, it would be the greatest honor to be one of His followers! Instantly he got up. He left his table with all the money on it
He went after our Lord. And Jesus made him one of His 12 Apostles. He changed his name to Matthew. He wrote the wonderful Gospel According to Saint Matthew 
He saw all that Jesus did. He heard all that Jesus said. He walked with Him & grew to love Him more & more

To make sure that the world would never forget Jesus , Matthew wrote all this down in his beautiful Gospel. Gospel, you know, means Good News. He died a blessed martyr. With Saint Mark 
, Saint Luke 
and Saint John 
he is one of the Four Evangelists.
