12:00 PM: Mission Moment with Sr. Mark

“Publishers Notes” by Sr. Mary Mark Wickenheiser, Publisher of Pauline Books and Media

Welcome and thank you for joining us!

Let me introduce you to a very exciting aspect of Pauline Books and Media—our Pauline Center for Media Studies. Media literacy—or media mindfulness as the faith community often calls it—is an educational imperative for people of the 21st century. The director of our Pauline Center, Sr. Rose Pacatte, offers classes on the theory and practice of media literacy as related to popular culture, advertising, the Internet, and the history of film. This expertise constitutes an essential set of life skills for believers today—and especially for persons whose duty it is to hand on the faith, including parents, grandparents, priests, and religious educators.

Sr. Rose has hosted a number of spectacular events, such as Movie Bible Nights, National Film Retreats, a course entitled Cinema Divina: Shared Praxis and Prayer, and so much more.



Oh yes, she has a great blog which is mostly about movies but it is also a media potpourri that encompasses film, television, book and other reviews; the theology and spirituality of communication; information about media literacy education articles, activities and courses, and all things relevant.

Sr. Rose and the sisters who collaborate with her in this very necessary and dynamic apostolate also count on your donations to Pauline Books and Media. Can you see how much good there is to be done? Your financial support is so greatly needed. At the same time, this need offers you an opportunity to participate in our very special mission in the Church. Please support our works by either sending your offering through this secure site or—if you wish to speak to a sister—by calling us at 800-876-4463 between 10:00 a.m. and  10:00 p.m. EST. Whatever you can do to help us is greatly appreciated. God bless you.


 

Your generosity guides our work and lifts our spirit! Thank you and may God bless you!

 

In appreciation of the good works of the Daughters of St. Paul, I want to share in the joy of making a difference in the life of another person by donating now.



 

Return here at 2:30 pm to join us for an Apostolate Spotlight video with Sr. Rose!
