Beyond Words. The Remarkable Story of Paul and Nathalie Means
Edited by Laurel Means

Paul Banwell Means has an aim. He wants to go overseas as an educator and a missionary. Blessed with a wife Nathalie who shares his vision, Paul heads to the Far East to take up the position of the Principal of the Methodist Boys' School in Medan, Sumatra. On a trip into the jungles of North Sumatra, Paul meets the Bataks, and it is there that Paul's understanding of Christian mission is shaped.

Paul and Nathalie Means "came to bear witness to the Light, the Light that shines in the Malayan jungles and in Indian villages," where they served as missionaries, linguists, translators, and literacy specialists. Theirs are two impressive lives which deserve to be remembered in the history of our 21st-century world.

This biography of Paul and Nathalie Means is well woven around the many letters which dramatically bring to life their unrelenting work to make Kunci Pelajaran (the keys to reading) a reality. Share
their struggles and their triumphs. Read about how Paul on his deathbed was still planning their
next mission to Malaysia, and how Nathalie fulfils her promise to him.
