ON THIS DAY in MISSIONARY HISTORY

1 March 1854 – Dr. Hudson Taylor stepped ashore for the first time in Shanghai, China, to begin his missionary work. For years Hudson Taylor’s heart had burned with a fervent compulsion to carry the Gospel to China. The civil war began the week he arrived and his first six months in China were fraught with danger and loneliness. No one could have guessed that He would become one of the greatest Missionaries the world has ever known.
