Welcome to the website of the Daughters of St. Paul.
We are women consecrated like Paul the Apostle to be apostles of Christ to the world of today, announcing the message of reconciliation using the means of communication. A single city was not enough for Paul, so he became the traveler of God, continuously on the move, preaching, founding communities of Christians, instructing, teaching, guiding. At the same time Paul was a mystic, a man deeply moved by the Spirit and completely on fire with his love for Jesus. We make this mystic-apostolic vision of Paul our own as we live in community, in his spirit, carrying out the same apostolate twenty centuries later.
“An apostle is one who carries God in her soul and radiates him around herself.
An apostle is a saint who accumulates treasure and communicates its surplus to humanity.
An apostle has a heart on fire with love of God and of souls; she can neither restrain nor suffocate what she feels and thinks.
An apostle is a vessel of election which overflows, and souls hasten to her to quench their thirst.
The apostle is a temple of the Blessed Trinity who is supremely active in her. …She exudes God from all her pores—with words, work, prayer, gestures, attitudes, whether in public or in private—from her entire being.
Live God! And give God!”
Blessed James Alberione, Founder
