Hudson Taylor - An incredible true story

Posted by Paul, 26/02/2010

In conjunction with OMF and EverAfter Theatre, we're pleased to host EverAfter's production of Hudson Taylor's life story.

Sunday 21st March at 3pm

"Willing to give up everything, his friends, family, his culture and even his life to meet the needs of the Chinese people, Hudson Taylor was a man of vision and of faith. Forced by circumstances to grapple with the big issues of life, his was a life lived on his knees in prayer to the God he loved to serve, of self-sacrifice for the needs of others and of great joy even in the face of suffering.

"EverAfter's brand new one man show is a dramatic retelling of the extraordinary life of James Hudson Taylor whose call to China in 1853 was to not only change his life forever but also the lives of tens of thousands of Chinese people. Performed in EverAfter's trademark storytelling style, Hudson Taylor is in turns comic and tragic, searching and uplifting; it is a remarkable picture of faith in God which is searingly relevant in our cynical culture."

Audience comments on Hudson Taylor:

"Absolutely riveting - moving and challenging," "Performance was outstanding", "A 'must-see' production that left me enthralled, stirred and grateful to God for what He accomplished through one man yield to Him."

Hudson Taylor is presented in association with OMF International (UK) Bring hope to hard places. OMF was founded by James Hudson Taylor in 1865 as the China Inland Mission.
