Commontide

For Watchfulness

Thou, who with thine own mouth hast told us that at midnight the bridegroom shall come: Grant that the cry, “The bridegroom cometh!” may sound evermore in our ears, that so we be never unprepared to meet him, or forgetful of the souls for whom he died, for whom we watch and pray. And save us, O Lord. Amen.

The Feast of Matthias

Matthias the Apostle, chosen after the Ascension to fill the place left vacant by Judas Iscariot and numbered among the Twelve at Pentecost. His selection in Acts 1 is the sole canonical record of his life; the church remembers him as a faithful apostle whose obscurity in the New Testament is itself part of his witness.
