使徒研究人類和國家的重要精神及道德需求，然後他寫下來，透過印刷的宣講台來推廣，就像講道者在教會的講道台上一樣。使徒把他從天主白白得來的東西，也白白地分施。（AE, 383） The apostle studies the important spiritual and moral needs of peoples and nations; then he writes and promotes from the pulpit of the press, just like the preacher from the church pulpit. The apostle gives freely what he has freely received from God (AE, 383).

我們的推廣不是商業行為，因為它不是商品或利益交換，它的目的不是為了利潤或賺錢，而是為了天主的光榮和人類的永恆救恩。（AE, 383） Promotion is not business because there is no barter of goods and money; its aim is not gain but God’s glory and the eternal salvation of human beings (AE, 383).

使徒必須是好天使，提醒每個人永恆的生命和得救的方法；使徒向那些只關心世事的天主子女談論天主和天堂。（AE, 384） The apostle must be the good angel who reminds every one of their eternal destiny and the ways of salvation; the angel who speaks of God and of heaven to those children of God whose concerns are with this world only (AE, 384).

傳播者是分配員，他從教會中取出耶穌基督託付給他的寶物，並把它們分發給人：讓我們每個人把自己看作是基督的僕人，是天主奧祕的管理員。（AE, 385） The apostle promoter is a dispenser who takes from the Church’s treasury the riches entrusted to her by Jesus Christ and distributes it to people: «This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and dispensers of God’s mysteries» (AE, 385).

没有散發出去的福傳印刷品就像隱藏的燈，或是沒有孩子的家庭。燈如果被藏起來就不能發光，同樣，如果好的印刷品閒置在倉庫，就不能照亮人靈。（AE, 386） The press apostolate without the diffusion may be likened to hiding a lamp under a bushel, to a family without children. Just as a lamp, if it is hidden, does not give light, so the good press, if it remains hidden in warehouses, cannot give light to people (AE, 386).

耶穌基督教導我們不要等待人來，而是去尋找他們。使徒必須像導師一樣，在城市、鄉鎮、家庭，甚至最偏遠的地區傳播天主的話語，因為所有人都蒙召要認識救恩之道。（AE, 387） Jesus Christ taught us not to wait for people, but to seek them out. Like the Teacher, the apostle must promote God’s word in the cities, in the towns, and even in the most remote homes… because all are called to know the way of salvation (AE, 387).

使徒必須學習忘記自我，以便將自己奉獻給天主及眾人。（AE, 388） The apostle must learn to forget himself in order to give himself to people and to God (AE, 388).

使徒的首要和唯一目標是天主的光榮和人靈的益處。所有其他的工作和行動都是為了這崇高的目的。（AE, 393） The apostle’s first and sole goal must be the glory of God and the spiritual good of people. All the rest, works and initiatives, are in view of this ultimate goal (AE, 393).

不要以為人不喜歡屬靈的工作。他們享受它，渴望它，對它的理解遠超我們的想像。梅西爾樞機主教說的對：「人必須提升自己，才能提升他人。」（AE, 416） Banish the thought that people do not enjoy spiritual works. They enjoy them, they want them and they understand them more than we give them credit for. What Cardinal Mercier said still holds true: «You need to stand up yourself in order to pull others up» (AE, 416).

我們要知道，閱讀聖經非常重要，也被教會所推崇，因為聖經是天主為每個人寫的，每個人都需要它。在聖經中，人人都能找到適合他們的好東西，使他們變得更好。（AE, 184） Let people understand that reading of the Holy Books is important and recommended by the Church, because they are God’s writings for everyone and everyone needs them… Everyone can find something good in the Holy Books in order to help them become better (AE, 184).

印刷工作，就像宣道的使徒工作，需要圍繞祭台和聖體龕。讓我們回到泉源！唯有如此，我們才有完整的敬禮，才有思想、意志和心靈得到完美滋養的基督徒！只有這樣，人才能真正全心、全意、全力地愛天主。（AE, 429） The press apostolate, like the word apostolate, needs to be brought back around the altar and the tabernacle… Let us return to the sources! Only in this way shall we have complete worship, the perfect Christian, the person nourished in mind, will and heart! Only in this way can we truly love the […]

編輯、技術和發行這三方面都是保祿會的使徒工作，目標是為天主的光榮和人靈的益處。（AE, 444） The editorial, technical and diffusion are the three parts of a sole apostolate which the religious Congregation of the Pious Society of Saint Paul aims to implement for God’s glory and the good of people’s souls (AE, 444).
