How dear is Formosa to my heart!
A lifetime of joy is centered here.
George Leslie Mackay
March 2022, marks the 150th anniversary since Dr.George Leslie Mackay first came to Taiwan. For one and a half century, his contributions in the religious, medical, and education fields have been impacting the lives of Taiwanese people. And to this day, these works Mackay had done still have major influences over the entire island of Taiwan.
During this important year of celebration, the communities and church organizations in the entire Tamsui region gathered together to commemorate this legend and to unite Taiwanese people through the celebrating activities of his spirits and love.
With deep connections to Mackay, we as the students of Tamkang High School, hope to participate in this event. Therefore, we decided to protect the culture Dr.Mackay formed through love and passion by putting together a website dedicated to him and keep passing on his spirits and God’s love.
