Black and white lantern slide showing a group of staff from the Peruvian Inland Mission. On the front row in the centre sit Annie Georgina Soper and Frances Rhoda Gould, who founded the "Medical Mission" in Moyobamba that was to be the ancestor of the Peruvian Inland Mission. Annie Soper sits with a baby on her knee in a flowered dress, and Rhoda Gould sits with a fair-haired European girl on her knee next to Miss Soper, in a white nurse's uniform. Lucy Kisky sits on the left end of the front row, and Reverend Edward James Ball stands immediately behind Miss Kisky. 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.
