Description
Black and white lantern slide showing a group of children sitting at a long table during a meal-time in a Peruvian Inland Mission institution. Most children are European, although a young Peruvian woman sits at the end of the table. An older female missionary sits at the head of the table (possibly Miss Soper or Miss Gould), and Mary Taverner, nurse and head of Lamas Bible School, sits to the side of her. 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.
