Black and white lantern slide showing a view of a Christmas celebration hosted by the Peruvian Inland Mission, probably at their headquarters in Lamas. A tree can be seen in the background that is decorated with ornaments, in front of which stands a nativity scene. Children (boys and girls) gather in front of the tree, and missionaries stand around a table in the foreground, one of whom gives out a drink from a large bowl. Cups and food lie on the wooden table. 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.
