Get to Know Donna Heckler, APC

I became a Pauline Cooperator on January 25, 2020. It has been an honor to get to know the Daughters more fully during the past several years. After a career of marketing strategy and leadership, I had been seeking a way to connect my skills with my faith when I met the Daughters. To say, it felt like my hand found its glove would be an understatement. The charism of the Daughters speaks to how I have tried to live my life, using marketing and media for good and now for sharing the good news of Christ. As a Cooperator, I continue to listen to his calls for writing, speaking, and development of marketing programs that can help draw people to our Lord.    

Donna A. Heckler is a global marketing executive who has been blessed with a prominent career in companies whose names we all know. A recognized thought leader in brand and marketing strategy, Donna has written Marketing God: Inspired Strategies for Building the Kingdom, released by Our Sunday Visitor in August 2019. She is also co-author of The Truth About Creating Brands People Love and the acclaimed Living Like a Lady When You Have Cancer. Donna is a Catholic speaker, author, and advisor with a knack for insightful and engaging story telling. 

Who We Are

The Daughters of St. Paul, a congregation of Catholic women religious, live our vocation in service to God’s people by proclaiming the Gospel through all forms of media. Our profoundly Eucharistic spirituality roots us in Jesus so that no matter what we do—writing, graphic design, radio, video, social media, music, art—we may be a communication of Christ’s love to every person we encounter.

Discern Your Vocation

We regularly host opportunities for vocational discernment, providing a space for young women to learn about religious life and pray about where God is calling them. Get in touch with us to learn about events near you or to speak with a Sister.

Be Part of the Mission

Pauline Cooperators are lay men and women who anchor their lives in the Pauline spirituality and who participate in the Pauline mission, which is the very mission of Christ, the proclamation of the Kingdom of God.
