Introduction of the Action Plan
The year 2022, marks the 150th year anniversary of the arrival of Dr.George Leslie Mackay at Tamsui. Throughout one and a half centuries, the influences and impacts that prosper from the works of Dr.Mackay have deeply taken roots in the lands of Taiwan. And it is his spirit that will forever be remembered and celebrated by the Taiwanese people. It is our honor and goal to commemorate this legend and to spread the incredible things he has done for the region.
The Dr.Mackay website will be the main form of display in this project. When mentioning the word “modern”, we often think of the advanced internet and technologies. And because of this, we expect to provide another method to relative information through the establishment of this website. Although there are more professional websites that offer more in-depth information on the internet, we still hope to participate as the students of Tamkang high school.
Today, many activities are held to provide people an opportunity to experience and commemorate the works of Dr.Mackay. “Walk on the paths of the missionaries”, is an activity in which participants go through the areas where the missionaries used to go when they were spreading the gospel in rural areas. We hope to promote these kinds of activities to our friends, families, and people around the globe by sharing them on social media and our website.
Photographing and videotaping the spots in relation to Dr.Mackay. And use these gathered materials to construct a video dedicated to the commemoration. One other interesting activity is to re-shoot the old pictures and add new elements to them.
Through examining and researching different databases and document references, we will draw the footprints of Dr.Mackay’s mission path and construct a map dedicated to his works.
