For eighteen months during his tenure in Bitburg, he also served as the interim minister for both a French-speaking Baptist congregation in Liege, Belgium and for a Russian-speaking Baptist congregation in Bonn, Germany, conducting a 2 p.m. worship service on alternating Sundays in either French or Russian.

Also during his tenure with the Bitburg congregation, Dr. Young was named DVM (Servant of the Divine Word) by the German Baptist Union for establishing a counseling program for the terminally ill and their families in the German Baptist Hospital in Hamburg.

From 1949 to 1953, he was a piper with the 42nd Black Watch/Argyll Highlanders and was taken as a prisoner of war by the Chinese during the Korean Conflict. From 1955 until 1970, Dr. Young was a soldier in the United States Army, during which he served six tours of duty in Vietnam.

Dr. Young became a citizen of the United States in 1955. In 1965 he was ordained to the ministry by the Boiling Springs Baptist Church, Boiling Springs, N.C. He currently resides in Richmond. He has two daughters, Ruth is a student at Averett College and Kyrstyn is still in high school.

The Forest Grove Baptist Church is very excited about having Dr. Young as guest speaker for its 1993 fall revival. “We want to invite all our church’s membership and friends to attend any and all of these four services,” said Forest Grove’s Pastor, Rev. Sidney Rodriguez.
