James Hudson Taylor III [Aug 12, 1929 - Mar 20, 2009]
Two days ago in a Hong Kong hospital, Jamie Taylor (James Hudson Taylor IV) shared his dad’s last words to him, ”live to make a difference for Jesus.” What an incredible family legacy now spanning five generations of humble service to the Chinese for Jesus Christ. Through James Husdon Taylor V whose mother is Chinese (”Mimi” Yeh-Min Ke), it is said, “Chinese blood is now immersed in the Taylor’s next generation as they are growing up around us.” (Christ Alone: A Pictorial Presentation of Hudson Taylor’s Life and Legacy)The work of Hudson Taylor continues through OMF International

ACHTUNG!
WOW. How easy it is to allow time to pass by.
I know. I know. I’ve gotten messages wondering what happened?
It’s been over a month and a brand new year boys and girls. Other than the busyness of the holidays I’ve been engaged in ministry and rethinking some things about abcpastor.com. Sometimes we just need to press pause.
I promise there’ll be some exciting updates coming. Thanks for being faithful readers. Hang on for more.ACHTUNG! **************************************************************************************
What’s really kept me completely occupied is a little labor of love called, ACHTUNG! the youth program of the Chinese Mission Convention (CMC) by Ambassadors for Christ (AFC). I have been privileged to coordinate this program for the third time. It’s just a blast for me to work alongside good friends like Peter Ong and Joseph Tsang. Also artist friends Neah Lee, Tim Be Told, and Victor Lin. Other stars include Philly natives, Hoon Kim and Dean Trulear. All phenomenal leaders that I had the pleasure of partnering with in challenging a new generation towards the cross. In ACHTUNG, we attempted to do things differently than your average youth conference. We don’t want the students to just sit in a convention center listening to talking heads, as good as they are, we try our best to take them to the streets.The Chinese Mission Convention (CMC) is a premier tri-annual missions gathering for China following on the coattails of the Urbana Student Missions Conference. This year’s convention highlighted the 200th anniversary of Robert Morrison’s mission to China. CMC does what Chinese ministries do best, reaching the Chinese.
