Commemorated today for the sake of breastfeeding mothers.\n\nSt. Matthew\, one of the twelve Apostles\, is the author of the first Gospel. This has been the constant tradition of the Church and is confirmed by th e Gospel itself. He was the son of Alpheus & was called to be an Apostle w hile sitting in the tax collector’s place at Capernaum. Before his conve rsation he was a publican\, ie.\, a tax collector by profession. He is to be identified with the “Levi” in the Gospels of Mark and Luke. \n\nSt. Matthew can be considered as the prototype of a sinner saved by the grace of Christ. He was a tax collector\, despised by the Jewish people for col laborating with the Roman Empire. Yet our Lord chose him to be among His H oly Apostles saying to those who questioned His choice\, "I came not to ca ll the righteous\, but sinners to repentance."
