Abstract
The limited research on the theological education of nineteenth-century Christian missionaries,
including those of the Société des Missions Evangéliques chez les peuples non-chrétiens á Paris
(hereafter PEMS), is of particular interest considering the surviving, significant manuscript
collections related to the missionaries – their training and teaching in Paris, France and Morija,
Lesotho. This article presents the theological trajectories and historical-theological context of the
PEMS missionaries together with an in-depth analysis of a recently discovered notebook of
Adolphe Mabille (1836–1894); and concludes with preliminary observations of the theological
education of these missionaries.
