My name is Heather Biggs. I’ve lived in Nevada County for 30 years with my husband, two sons, and several "chosen" children. My husband and I served in ministry at Wolf Mountain Camp and Conference Center for nearly 15 years, and I’ve been involved in ministry in some form throughout our marriage.

After spending 25 years chronically ill—10 of those bedbound—God began to heal me in 2019. With that healing came a deep urgency to redeem the lost time and step back into service. That journey moved me to discover a way to offer the freedom and healing I had received.

I’m especially moved by the story of Jesus choosing to touch the leper before healing him. He met the man’s heart need before his physical need. It challenges me to ask: Who are the lepers of today—the marginalized, the invisible, the ones we avoid? And how can we reach out to them the way Jesus did?

Through Practical Outreach, my goal is to equip others with simple, effective tools to build courage to reach out and connect with those most in need. I’m excited to follow where God leads—unsure of the destination, but ready for the ride!
