Book excerpt: George Leslie Mackay or Má-kai; (21 March 1844 - 2 June 1901, aged 57) was the first Presbyterian missionary to northern Taiwan (then Formosa). Born in Canada, He dedicated his life to bringing medical, dental, and spiritual guidance to the people of Taiwan. Along with establishing more than 60 local churches, Oxford College (Aletheia University), the first girls' school (Tamsui Girls' School, 1884) and Tamsui Middle School (Tamkang Senior High School), he was also involved in the bringing of Western medicine to Taiwan. A key achievement was the establishment of what is now called the MacKay Memorial Hospital in 1880.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1871 George Leslie Mackay became the first foreign missionary to be commissioned by the Canada Presbyterian Church. He arrived in the Island of Formosa, now Taiwan, on December 29, 1871. Mackay arrived in Tamsui, Northern Formosa in 1872, which remained his home until his death in 1901. Starting with an itinerant dentistry practice amongst the lowland aborigines, he later established churches, schools and a hospital practicing Western biomedicine. Mackay was described as, "...a little man, firm and active, of few words, unflinching courage, and one whose sound common sense is equaled only by his earnest devotion to the Master." You hold in your hands a piece of history. It speaks of a world that doesn't exist anymore today, yet holds keys to peoples and lands that do not know anything of the good news of the gospel. This book will inspire you to give, to pray, and to go out to those who still wait in the darkness. We are the ones who carry the responsibility today. All who are thirsty, let them COME!
