Black and white lantern slide showing a missionary nurse (possibly nurse Jessie L Norton) from the Peruvian Inland Mission holding the hands of an infant as s/he toddles along. Annie G Soper, nurse and founder of the Peruvian Indian Mission, stands in the background. The image has been taken outside a Peruvian Inland Mission building, probably the hospital at Lamas. 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.
