The Viatorian mission in Peru currently has one religious and eleven associates. Since the establishment of this mission in 1960, many Viatorians have dedicated themselves to the cause of the most disadvantaged in the land of the Incas. Today, this community continues to stay the course in a context of great fragility. It does so in two hubs: Collique (Lima) and Cutervo.
