Our Clergy
The Rev. Michael P. Barham, D.Min. Vicar (senior priest)
Vicar Michael strives to love God and to love those among
whom he serves. We almost always find him in hiking boots,
because he has the soul of a pilgrim after having made
several sacred journeys to various holy sites, including the
camino to Santiago de Compostela (Spain). Ordained to Holy
Orders in 2008, Vicar Michael served as an associate priest
in the Diocese of Hawaii before returning to the Bay Area
when we called him to be our priest in 2013. In addition to
Holy Family, Vicar Michael serves as priest for our partner
church, Good Shepherd, Belmont. Prior to becoming a
priest, he worked briefly in residence life at Saint Mary's
College of California. In 2012, he earned a Doctor of
Ministry (from CDSP), and the rich experiences of hospitality
he has received as a pilgrim from folks who live and
volunteer along the camino, along with his studies, continue
to inform his ministry. He is an alum of the Divinity School
at Duke University, North Carolina (M.Div.), and Millsaps
College, Jackson, Mississippi (B.A. in Religious Studies). We
love that he gets excited about the pumpkin ice cream we
serve each year at the annual Half Moon Bay Pumpkin
Festival, and the ways many ways he challenges and leads
us to deepen our faith, and to be living examples of Christ's
love for our neighbors and one another.
