Hi Everyone! We ordered the plaque today please head over to Friends of Liverpool Chinatown Facebook group for the details. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1061282674405875 After much consultation over the wording we managed to come up with text that is right and fitting. There is so much heritage in 20 Nelson Street it was difficult to get it all on one plaque. The plaque cost £592.14 leaving us with £122.74 to order a brass style plate for the Wellington Koo information. Will let you know in 6 weeks when it will be unveiled. Thank you!

Hi A message from the Chinese Gospel Church "The Chinese Gospel Mission didn't close, they just moved to Saint Michael, then moved to 19-20 Great George Square. They changed their name and registered as a church. The actual date they left 20 Nelson Street still needed to be confirmed. We're waiting for the reply from our ex-pastor who is in Australia". As soon as we get confirmation of the date they moved we will order the plaque. Thanks for your patience. All the best Moira & John

We are researching the exact date the Chinese Mission left 20 Nelson Street. Liverpool Records Office has informed us Pastor Wong left in 1970 and Caroline his daughter has confirmed this. However, the Mission carried on although the building was not lived in. We went to the Chinese Gospel Church in Great George Street, they're going to contact me when Janet, who has contacted people for the information, gets back from leave on the 22nd. The Mission moved to St Michaels before moving to Great George Street, contacting them is the next step!
