Mark Way
Wilfrid Lewis Mark Way (called Mark; 12 May 1905 – 30 July 1982) was a British Anglican bishop. He was the third Bishop of Masasi, serving during the third quarter of the 20th century.
Born on 12 May 1905[1] and educated at Rossall School and Trinity College, Cambridge, he was ordained in 1929.[2]
He was made a deacon in Advent 1928 (on 23 December)[3] and ordained a priest the next Advent (22 December 1929) — both times by Albert David, Bishop of Liverpool, at Liverpool Cathedral.[4] After curacies at St Faith, Great Crosby[5] and St Bartholomew, Brighton[6] he became an UMCA Missionary in Tanzania. He was Curate of Korogwe then Priest in charge of several Zanzibar Missions[7] and finally (before his elevation to the episcopate) Warden of Kalole Theological College. He was consecrated a bishop on St Luke's Day 1952 (18 October) at Westminster Abbey.[8] On his return to England he was Rector of Averham (1960–1971),[9] and during that time also an Assistant Bishop of Southwell.[10] He died on 30 July 1982.[11]
