EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide captures the essence of a mission hospital in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea during the Victorian period. The image transports us back to a time when early Christian missionaries dedicated their lives to providing medical care and support to those in need. The architecture of the hospital is reminiscent of the colonial era, with its grand facade and intricate detailing. The surrounding landscape hints at the remote location of this mission, nestled amidst lush greenery and towering palm trees. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the selfless dedication of these missionaries who braved unknown territories to bring healing and hope to communities far from home. The simplicity of their facilities belies the profound impact they had on the lives of those they served. In an age where modern medicine reigns supreme, it is humbling to reflect on a time when basic healthcare was a luxury for many. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and our responsibility to care for one another, no matter where we may find ourselves in the world. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of history for future generations to appreciate and learn from. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of missionary work and humanitarian efforts around the globe.
