Pray for Us ✝️

May 14 Feast of St. Matthias, Apostle
Chosen by lot, guided by prayer. 🙏
St. Matthias reminds us that God sees the heart, not fame, not power. Though he walked in the background, he was chosen to take the place of Judas and become a pillar of the early Church.
May we, like St. Matthias, remain faithful in the hidden moments, trusting that the Lord calls us in His perfect time.
St. Matthias, pray for us!

Today we celebrate the first anniversary of the election of Pope Leo XIV. At Saint Leo University, the name “Leo” carries 15 centuries of meaning – from Leo the Great, who turned back Attila the Hun through moral authority, to Leo XIII at our founding in 1889, to Leo XIV today. The world needs more Leos.
