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!
