Vernon Higham was born on Christmas Day in 1926 in Caermarfon, Wales. During the depression years he relocated to the U.K. living in Lancashire. He was trained and employed as a teacher but later entered the theological college in Aberystwyth where he found Christ as Savior. After ministering in Pontardulais, Llanddewi and Cardiff he pastored the Heath Evangelical Church in Cardiff for 40 years. He is the author of many tracts, books and pamphlets and has written several hymns. His last thirteen years of ministry was at Tabernacle, Cardiff and it was there too where he passed into glory.
