Our mission

Evangelizing in the sphere of communications

test...

As the Daughters of St. Paul, fondly known as “Paulines,” or “the media nuns,” we belong to an international congregation of Catholic religious sisters. Guided by the spirit of Saint Paul, we are commissioned to evangelize in the sphere of communications.

Embracing the Mission

Our goal, as set by our founder, Blessed James Alberione, is to live and give Jesus Christ “in the way he defined himself,” as the Way, the Truth, and the Life of humanity (John 14:6). This mission is for our entire Pauline Family.

“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'”

John 14:6

Sharing the Gospel through Modern Media

We root our mission in the Eucharist and the Word of God, which we encounter daily through personal prayer and community life. Inspired to share what we have received, we use our creativity to serve the Church. We use modern media forms such as books, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube videos, podcasts, and more to communicate the Gospel today.

Apostolate of Prayer

Send us your prayer intentions.

Apostolate of Prayer

The Pauline mission begins and ends in prayer. Prayer is, after all, engaging in “conversation” with God through our praise, intercession, adoration, and thanksgiving. In prayer our lives are transformed into a loving communication of the heart of God for his people. Let us know how we can pray for you and your loved ones.
