WATCH: FATHER MATTHIAS ON SAINT MATTHIAS: Today is the Feast of Saint Matthias, the disciple of Jesus Christ who was chosen to replace the dead traitor, Judas Iscariot, as one of the twelve apostles.

Napili siyang pumalit sa kanya matapos na ang mga apostol sa pangunguna ni Pedro ay nanalangin sa Diyos at humingi ng gabay sa Espiritu Santo. San Matias, ipanalangin mo kami. #Katekyut #catholic #christian #saint #martyr #apostles #patronsaint #catholicchurch #HolySpirit | April Baybayon | Facebook
