The Inca Work in Peru

GROUP OF BELIEVERS IN AREQUIPA, PERU
GROUP OF BELIEVERS IN AREQUIPA, PERU
AREQUIPA is located on a plateau in Peru less than halfway up the Andes range on the direct route from the coast to Lake Titicaca. About this lake at one time the powerful Inca Indian tribe had its headquarters. It is here, up among the clouds in the high altitudes of this same lake, that our Indian work among the Incas is now being carried forward. Here we have over three hundred loyal Indian brethren and sisters. From our Puno mission the sound of this message has gone out into the regions round about until it is impossible to answer the many calls coming in for teaching evangelists.
Two families of recruits are now pressing their way up the mountains, stopping at Arequipa to study the language en route, to relieve our overworked missionaries in this our highest mission station in the world. (See article on page 5)
