Edizioni Paoline

Edizioni Paoline is an Italian Catholic publishing house. Its official website presents books, music, and news content, and its history pages describe the origins of the Pauline mission in 1915 and the founding of the Figlie di San Paolo (Daughters of St. Paul) by don Giacomo Alberione and suor Tecla Merlo.

The official history page states that the origins of the Pauline mission trace to 27 June 1915, when Teresa, a young woman of twenty-one, don Giacomo, a young priest of thirty-one, and the Pauline sisters began their first steps. Teresa and a small group of young women accepted don Giacomo's invitation and, sewing clothes for soldiers, began to form themselves as apostles of the Good Press. The Editrice page states that on 25 January 1939, the young Figlie di San Paolo, accompanied by their founder don Giacomo Alberione and their Superior General suor Tecla Merlo, went to the tomb of the Apostle in Rome to place a golden pen. The Testimoni page identifies Don Giacomo Alberione as the founder, now blessed, and suor Tecla Merlo as mother and first Superior General of the Congregation.
