About Me

Abel’s parents were divorced five days after they were married—long enough to conceive him. When his mom was 8 months pregnant, she returned to Abel’s dad, and he brutally beat her. Trying to protect her unborn baby, she took severe blows to the head that caused her to become mentally ill. After she gave birth to Abel in 1978 November 23, she immersed herself in flames and died in 1988. Abel was sent to an orphanage in 1980 and lived there until he was an adult. He has never met his father.

Ever since Abel was a child he knew that some day he would be serving God as an evangelist. His fellow students would laugh at him in 1990, but his teacher said it is the best job anyone can ever do in the world. 

In 1986 at age of 9, Abel began to work after school. In 1992 at 15, he started using drugs and became a drummer in a secular band and found himself pulling away from God.

Abel’s heart ached for love. Abel became an atheist and a body builder. He would do anything for anyone if they paid him, even beating up pastors. At 19, he was told that people respected him out of fear and not of love in 1997.

For two years Abel tried to commit suicide. After each attempt, he was put in the hospital for months, only to try again after being released.

In 1998 at 21, Abel laid on a train track hoping to die, and the train stopped before it got to him and shined a light on him. He was afraid he would be taken to the police station for attempting suicide again, so when the train started, he tried to lie on the tracks again, but something held him back. After the train rolled away, he realized no one was around.

It seemed that everything Abel put his hand to end in failure. He even failed at killing himself. He tried five times.

One more time, Abel tried to commit suicide at Suicide Rock in Chennai. When asking the taxi driver its location, they immediately brought him to a hotel room, and then would take him to the police station the next day. That night Abel cut his hand to bleed and die.

Then God spoke to his heart, “I love you, and I will give you a future.”

Abel said “If You will really be with me, I will serve you.”

But drugs still had a hold on him. At 21, some friends forced him to go to a Christian youth meeting. The pastor was talking about Esau and Jacob. Esau wept bitterly, but did not receive a blessing. Abel thought the pastor was talking about him, so he took the pastor by the shirt collar and asked, “Who told you about me?”

The pastor said that no one had told him and invited him to stay. The pastor said to Abel that God wanted to use him as an evangelist. Then Abel remembered the impressions he received as a young boy. That night Abel confessed his sins to God and began to follow Jesus Christ. Soon after Abel enrolled at Bible College where he graduated with a Masters of Divinity degree in 2001.

After college, Abel worked in the office with GFA, but his real desire was to minister to people. So he joined with Indian Missionary Society as an evangelist in Orissa.

There he taught 8th grade at the public school, and returned to GFA in 2005 and transferred to Hyderabad. That's where he met his wife Lois. He told her if she married him, they would become missionary evangelists. They joined with Assemblies of God church worked 2 years in Visakhapatnam and moved Karimnagar as Evangelist with Oasis World Ministries and in 2009 August moved to Repalle as Missionary Evangelist.

Abel and Lois have two kids Samuel Faith 4years and Thomas Faith 1year together Evangelizing the villages with gospel in Andhra Pradesh.
