Black and white photograph showing a group of missionaries working for the Methodist Missionary Society at the Ama Achara hospital in southeast Nigeria. Eleven male and female missionaries sit around a large table, which is set with plates and glasses, but with no food. Some missionaries wear paper hats. A female missionary sits at the head of the table. A caption to the image reads: "Ama Achara Xmas party, Dec 27, 1937." This photograph was pasted into one of a series of exercise book albums created by Emily Godfrey, Matron of the Ama Achara Methodist Hospital.
