About the Visionary:

Born and reared in a church centric family, last of the four children, I am consecrated to the Lord’s service at the age of 3.

Became a christian by choice and conviction in a student’s meeting. Influenced by Apostle P.M. Samuel and Bro. Bhakt Singh – desire only accelerated to pray and ask God for breakthroughs

After my Bachelors studies joined Southern Asia Bible College, and completed Master of Divinity (M.Div)

Taught in a Bible College for 9 years and trained 500 Assemblies of God church planters.

Worked with a national organisation, Seva Bharath (Mission India) at Leadership level, co-ordinating 5 Depts, 500 field staff and 1000 partners including curriculum development, translation in to 19 major Indian languages and transporting the curriculum material to 1100 different locations all over India and monitoring 1100 Sunday School Teacher Training and overseeing VBS style 10-day classes in nearly 30,000 locations and getting the results in form of reports.

With almost 2 decades of working I was led by the Lord for a fresh startup.

Planted 2 churches in 2 years baptising 20 people, and leading 40 persons to the Lord.

With the world’s largest democracy, India has the youth bulge where 70% are below 35 years of age. To reach them God led me to pioneer Gennext Vacation School (GVS), which is a 5-day Summer Vacation Classes to impact this vast nation in 25 years.
