Is can indicate aspects of community media in Christian letters of the apostle Paul of Tarsus? What elements make it possible to understand and discuss some prospect of collective and community interest in the epistles that won the world, more than 20 centuries after elaborate? This is reflective objective of this text. For this, in addition to community communication concepts, and contextualizing scenario in which the pauline letters were produced and disseminated, the text works with the conceptual references of Journalism presented by Tobias Peucer (2004) and Otto Groth (1966). Beyond to an agenda of themes focused to the interests of groups that dialogued, the letters of the Christian apostle played a pedagogical and reflective role to their communities that the writings were directed. Elements show that the habit of sending letters, thereby, also helping specifically in the function - militant, religious and community - the apostle. The conceptual discussion presented here is not intended to any dogmatic apology dogmatic/ proselytist, but rather a reflection associative with one of the traditional brands of Journalism: the collective interest, always sought in the editorial productions, are those for which segment or social group to which they are intended.
