Spring 2025
Halito! Hello!
Isaiah 61:11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. Spring is here! It’s a wonderful time of year when the earth is waking up from a winter’s nap! We rejoice in another time of spring, when all nations will see Him for who He is and every knee will bow to Him; Lord of Lords and King of Kings. The Dayspring that visited us. Luke 1:78.
We are no different than others and have had trials this winter. Our central heat went out on December 28 and was finally repaired on February, the 26th, 2025. Needless to say, with 11 inches of snow and 9 degrees at various times, we were slow moving. We didn't go far because of the danger of leaving electric heaters running if we were gone. Then we had to be back early enough to get the little heaters started and take the chill off before bed time. Above all, we did not want the cold weather to freeze our water pipes! Been there! I can tell you, when the heat came on in February, we were very thankful!
Daniel has been preaching locally at a Choctaw church near us and also, at our home church as the door has opened. We have been getting our schedule lined up for the rest of the year. This scripture comes to mind; Ecc. 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; It’s planting time, time to start planting the seed of God’s word. He said it would not return void. We just have to be faithful to go and do it. Lord Willing, we will start the spring off with two Mission Conferences; one in KS and one in MS. The one in KS will focus on the Native American work and bring us all up to date on what is taking place on certain reservations. We have VBS lined up on several reservations and meetings throughout the year. That brings to mind our van. It is heading for the shop again this week. We put new spark plugs in it in January. The mechanic asked when was the last time we had replaced them. I told him to my knowledge in 341,000 miles we had not ever replaced them. He proceeded to show me a spark plug he had taken out…. he just shook his head and said the Lord had to have kept that van running! Amen to that! God is good and we know HE will show us the vehicle HE wants us to get. In HIS time.
Please pray for our safety and health as we head out. Above all, please pray for souls to come to know Christ; not a little prayer prayed, but a life changed for HIS GLORY. We love you and hope to see you somewhere along the way! Thank you for being faithful.
The Higginbothams, Mrs. Shirley, Elena, and Daniel
