Mission

The mission of the Daughters of St. Paul involves the writing, publication, marketing and distribution of books, CDs, videos (VCDs, DVDs), magazines and periodicals, posters and computer software. We maintain bookshops and, where possible, we produce radio and TV programs, and have websites, all carrying a Christian message.

 

In today’s new culture of modern communication and societal woes, the Daughters of St. Paul remain faithful as ever to the charism of our Founder as we take up the invitation of Pope John Paul II to participate in the “new evangelisation.”

Our central mission is to communicate Christ. Like our patron, St.Paul, our task is to proclaim to all persons the unfathomable riches of Jesus, our Divine Master who is the Way to the Father, the Truth who sets us free and the Life who leads us to eternal life.

The first medium in which we accomplish this is through the witness of our lives, consecrated to God and dedicated to the Gospel. We offer ourselves as the incarnation of Christ’s redemptive hope and love.
Together as a community we then embark on our mission.

In Singapore, we minister in a variety of outreach projects bringing the Gospel message directly to the people. These projects include:-

  • book fairs and book displays in parishes, schools,conventions

  • teaching media literacy to students, teachers and faith formators

  • helping teenagers understand the many messages in the media and the need to be discerning in the use of today’s media

  • animation and formation initiatives aimed at promoting a culture of dialogue

  • utilizing the media for greater human and cultural development, and a more expansive, inculturated evangelization
