Armitage was educated at the University of Toronto and ordained in 1914.[1] After a curacy at the Church of the Messiah, Toronto, he was a chaplain to the Canadian Armed Forces during World War One, 3rd Battalion, Royal Regiment of Canada. He was awarded the Military Cross in the 1919 Birthday Honours for Bravery under fire rescuing wounded from the battlefield at Vimy Ridge, France.[2] When peace returned he went back to his parish, becoming vicar in 1921.
