Rev. Dr. Gabriel Olaniyan gave his Life to Jesus Christ after one brother Donatus shared the message of salvation with him sometimes in 1979 at Wukari, Taraba State, Nigeria. Though, he was born into a Christian family with actively committed parents to church activities and assignments, he only became aware that religious commitments are not the same as being saved from sin and lostness. Upon realization that he was not a Christian based on conviction from the Bible, he repented and surrendered his life to Christ in verbal confession of faith. Brother Donatus did a great work in discipling him. With years of growth in the Christian journey it dawned on him that God is calling him into full time gospel ministry. Occupying different church offices and ordination as a church deacon did not give him peace of mind. God needs him to be in full time ministry.
Thus, in 1999 his Theological training commenced and by 2011 he joined the Theological Education facility to date. Glory be God
