J. Hudson Taylor’s Great-Grandson Dies
April 1, 2009 – 10:46 amThe Christian Post reported that Dr. James Hudson Taylor III, the great-grandson of the legendary J. Hudson Taylor went home to be with his Lord on March 20. Like his great-grandfather, Taylor III “immersed himself in Chinese culture and shared the Gospel with the Chinese people.” J. Hudson Taylor established the China Inland Mission (now known as OMF International), which opened the door for the gospel to spread into the most remote regions of China.
Because Taylor III was born and reared in China as a missionary kid he “thought forms and literature like the Chinese themselves,” OMF recalls. The article reports that “Taylor’s dedication to the Chinese people touched the Chinese government’s heart and on April 4, 2007, he was awarded an honorary citizenship by a county of the Sichuan province.”
