WVHIGHAMTRUST - the ministry of Vernon Higham

From Caernarfon to Cardiff

Vernon Higham was born in Caernarfon, North Wales, but moved to Bolton in Lancashire, England, during the depression in the 1930’s. Following employment and training as a teacher in his early twenties, he attended theological college in Aberystwyth and came to know Christ’s saving power whilst there in 1953.

He served, in his early ministry, in Welsh speaking churches at Hermon, Pontardulais and Bethlehem, Penyrheol from 1955 to 1958, and at Bethesda, Llanddewibrefi from 1958 to 1962. There followed a call in 1962 to Heath Church in Cardiff, where he served for forty years. At present, he is serving as Pastor Emeritus at the Tabernacle Cardiff, and continues to preach the unsearchable riches of Christ throughout the land.

Before their marriage in 1955, Morwen Higham served as a 'Sister of the People' in the Forward Movement. Since then, Vernon and Morwen Higham have worked together as partners in the Gospel work, heirs together of the grace of life.
