| Ambassador Publications is an instrument as well as a means by which the Missionary Society of St Paul makes its contributions to the Pen-Apostolate, in the footstep of its patron saint, St Paul. It achieves this goal mainly through its Ambassador Magazine published quarterly, known as
The Catholic
Ambassador. |
| The
Ambassador Publications is also the trade name of the communications arm of
the Missionary society of St Paul. The word ‘Ambassador’ is derived from the
motto of the Society which is: “we are ambassadors for Christ.” The Society
is an indigenous missionary institute founded in Nigeria. |
| In
1980, the department started the publications of a quarterly magazine, The
Catholic Ambassador, that part of its mission consists of making known the
Missionary Society of St Paul, as well as serving the needs of the Church in
Nigeria. Because of the increasing cost of production, the editions of the
magazine, for now have been reduced to two a year.
Moreover,
the department publishes annually The Catholic Diary and Directory, and The
Liturgical Calendar for the Nigeria Church. It also undertakes the publication of new religious books ,
and reprint previous publications which it sells
at highly subsidized prices to people who needed them but couldn’t
afford them. It gets copy right
permission to reproduce spiritual audio and video tapes as well. All these are
distributed by the Ambassador Book Center. For now, most of these ventures are
achieved with the help of foreign grants , but the department itself in
putting things in place to be self-sufficient in the near future. |
