In keeping with this Sunday’s Gospel, let me get my two cents in on this Martha vs. Mary battle.
Information
Welcome to the Matthiast blog, honoring St. Matthias. This man, an apostolic blip in the salvation narrative, followed Jesus from the beginning, was never mentioned in the Gospels, chosen by lot in the Acts of the Apostles, then vanished, literarily, that is. Here we celebrate the spirit of this virtually invisible servant of Our Lord, and hope to be as faithfully selfless as he was.

I find it curious that Pope Benedict change St Martha’s feast day to include Mary and Lazarus. I can hear her coming out of the kitchen now!
So true and Martha-like. Would any of us want to face her wrath? But if both Mary and Martha are at Jesus’ feet, won’t Lazarus be in the kitchen?
