Collect upon St. Matthew, the Apostle and Evangelist

O Almighty God, who by Your blessed Son did call Saint Matthew from the receipt of custom to be an Apostle and Evangelist, grant us grace to forsake all covetous desires and inordinate love of riches and likewise to follow Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit one God, now and forever.
