“HUDSON TAYLOR – THE PROGRESSION OF A MISSIONARY CALL:
As child, at age 5: When I am a man, I mean to be a missionary and go to China.
As a young man:I feel I cannot go on living unless I do something for China.
Late in life, as a veteran missionary:
If I had 1,000 lives, I’d give them all for China.”
