Church of the Good Shepherd (Taipei)

The Church of the Good Shepherd (Chinese: 牧愛堂; pinyin: Mùàitáng; Wade–Giles: Mu4-ai4 tʽang2) is part of the Episcopal Diocese of Taiwan and is situated in Taipei, Taiwan. Good Shepherd grew from the migration of Chinese who came to Taiwan after World War II; at the Church's height there were sixteen congregations. It had key early support from American military chaplains who held worship services at different locations, including the Taiwan Theological College and Seminary on Yangmingshan. After more than a decade of sponsorship by the US military chaplaincy, the Church was formally founded in 1963 to serve the foreign community in the Taipei area. The first two pastors were Lt. Col. Robert E. Hammerquist and Major Richard S. Craig. The congregation is among the oldest English congregations in Taiwan. After a series of relocations, in 1965, the Church of the Good Shepherd purchased a plot of land situated at its current premise in Shilin District in which worship services have been held since 1966. Currently the congregation is made of mostly Taiwanese people, but also with a wide mixture of other nationalities. The church is one of the very few Protestant congregations in Taiwan following the liturgical Protestant tradition with choir leading the Chinese services. The controversial historical first House of Bishops Meeting of the Episcopal Church in Asia partly took place in the church between the 17th and 23 September 2014.
