Société des missions évangéliques de Paris.

The Société des missions evangéliques chez les peuples non-chrétiens à Paris (SMEP) (known in English as the Paris Evangelical Missionary Society) was founded in 1822. The Society sent its first three missionaries to Africa in 1829. It had work in Lesotho, Congo-Gabon, Cameroun, Madagascar, Senegal, Togo, Zambia and Algeria. In the Pacific Ocean, English-French rivalry eventually led to annexation by France of New Caledonia, Tahiti, and the Loyalty Islands, where missionaries of the SMEP replaced their English colleagues of the London Missionary Society.
