Pierre-Antoine Paulo, OMI (born March 23, 1944) is a Haitian prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He currently serves as Bishop of Port-de-Paix.
Pierre-Antoine Paulo was born in Camp Perrin, and traveled to the United States at age eighteen to enter the novitiate of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate in Colebrook, New Hampshire. He made his profession as a member of that Roman Catholic religious institute on August 2, 1963, and then furthered his studies in philosophy and theology at Rome.
Paulo was ordained to the priesthood on July 4, 1969, and did pastoral work following his return to Haiti. In 1976, he was assigned to the formation of future missionaries, serving as a novice master and superior of the scholasticate. Paulo was later named President of the Conference of Religious in Haiti and provincial superior of his religious institute in Haiti. In the latter office, he undertook missionary work in Colombia as well.
