Black and white lantern slide showing a group of orphan girls and boys at a Peruvian Inland Mission Institution, probably the Orphanage Home in Lamas. The children wear smart pinafore dresses, and boys wear shirts and shirts. Orphan girls in the picture outnumber orphan boys. Six female staff members stand at the rear of the portrait, including two Peruvian staff. This slide comes from a collection created by the Peruvian Inland Mission, an evangelical mission started in 1930 by Miss Annie G Soper in northeast Peru, which was administered by the evangelical interdenominational mission, Regions Beyond Missionary Union from 1948.
