Meeting Jesus in His Word
Meeting Jesus in His Word
The Pauline life is not a matter of doing. It is a way of being before Jesus Christ whom we meet in his Word. Finding him we are joyous, speak with him, understand his values, take on his choices. We learn a new way of being and relating to others.

Ways to Help

 
Development Funds
 
  
The Development Funds for the Daughters of St. Paul were created for the purpose of providing financial support for the needs of the community, the formation and education of new members, and the development of the Pauline apostolate.

Apostolic Development Fund
This fund has been established to promote the development of the Pauline mission in the US and English-speaking Canada. In the past this fund has helped us revitalize our website, fund special projects in the publishing house, and renovate Pauline Book and Media Centers.

Education Fund
 The Education Fund enables the Daughters of St. Paul to discover new ways of proclaiming the Gospel in a world constantly transformed by media. Our founder, Blessed James Alberione, once told us that the world was our classroom. The Sisters need sound doctrinal & professional education to be expert writers, communicators, presenters, innovators, evangelizers. This fund helps us form and educate young women entering our community to meet the media needs of a world yearning for the Gospel.

Vocation Fund
Within the Pauline Family, Christ’s call to priestly, religious and lay vocation—single and married—demonstrates that the communion envisioned by Vatican II is achievable. In building up the Body of Christ, this communion offers hope to our fragmented world. Our national vocational director, assisted by four regional vocationists, walk beside many young women as they learn to listen to and respond to God’s call to them. 

Special Fund for the Postulants in St. Louis

Health & Retirement Fund
With this fund we care for our elderly and ill sisters and those who need extra assistance. Our community receives only partial help for health care and minimal assistance (the annual NRRO collection) for our sisters aged 70 and over.

Facilities & Maintenance
The Facilities Fund provides for the maintenance and upkeep of over 25 convents and other buildings in which the sisters live and carry out their mission across the country. Generous donations in the past have enabled us to replace aging roofs, boilers, and recently an HVAC system in our infirmary as well as our retreat house.

The sisters often take turns walking outside with Sr. Mary Augusta, who, as she will often remind you, is the oldest sister in the province. She is 95 years old. 
 
 
The generous donations of benefactors help provide a theological, philosophical, and professional preparation for our young sisters pursuing their education. Currently Sr. Maria Kim and Sr. Emi Magnificat are studying for degrees in Marketing and Administration.
