Michael was a Licensed Lay Minister in the Purbeck Deanery from 1987 and was selected for ordination training in 2008. Ordained in 2011, he served for three years as a Curate in Wareham before becoming an Associate Priest with regular responsibility for Sunday services, weddings, funerals, baptisms and pastoral care. His community role includes being a trustee for the Harbin Pitt Charity, and Not Just Sundaes Community Café. He is also a church representative on the Wareham Burial Board which oversees the cemeteries in the town.
Permission To Officiate Priest:
The Reverend Michael Young
I have been the schools and children's worker in Wareham since 2010. Since being ordained in 2017 I have been part-time as schools worker and part-time as the curate in the next-door parish. Later this year (2020) I will, God willing, be licensed to the parish of Wareham as a pioneer, hoping to hang out in the community and seeing what God does with that. I love to walk, particularly on the coast path, to get dirt under my fingernails working in my garden, and to sleep under the stars. Oh - and I love to talk about Jesus, so, if you would like to do that too, maybe we could hang out in the community together sometime.
Children's worker and Pioneer Priest:
The Reverend Hilary Bond
